The Guracho coffee comes from Kercha district, in the Guji region. The Kedir family, who have supplied the central coffee market for 30 years, own 3 washing stations and 2 hullers for the natural preparation. “Trabocca is an ethical coffee buyer. They visit farms and talk to farmers. Look at the way processing takes place and give technical advice.” – Kedir Hassen Aredo. The Kedir family uses a Hagard pregraded machine, without the mucilage remover, for wet processing. They own 250 raised beds and invested in a dry huller to process every harvest efficiently. Kercha district receives sufficient amounts of rain. So, the challenge lies in adapting to weather conditions during harvests.
