In Kenya, coffee is sold mainly through two systems: the Nairobi Coffee Exchange auction or direct sales. Cafe imports source at auction, through exporters, and from direct relationships, allowing them access to a wider range of Kenyan coffees and cup profiles.
Mugaya Coffee Factory was established in 1975 in the town of Kagumo, Kirinyaga Kenya. This washing station serves nearly 1000 small-holder farmers in the region who average roughly 200 trees each. These small-holder farmers also grow macadamia, avocado, corn, beans and potatoes on their farms. Coffee here is processed in the traditional Kenyan style of double washed utilising fresh local water sources and dried on raised beds.
