The Kaffee-Kooperative is an innovative German-African social business dedicated to revolutionizing the distribution of coffee in a fair and sustainable way. Founded by a Ugandan and a German, the company aims to transform coffee farmers from raw material suppliers into self-determined entrepreneurs.
The Kaffee-Kooperative focuses on the production and distribution of high-quality specialty coffee, which is grown and processed directly by the producers in their own responsibility. The offerings include various coffee varieties, such as Espresso Café de Maraba and Angelique's Finest, which are available both online and in selected retail chains like Edeka and dm.
The main mission of the Kaffee-Kooperative is to promote fair trading conditions, social responsibility, and trade on equal terms. The company is committed to ensuring that coffee farmers have full control over the entire production process, from the cultivation phase to roasting and packaging. This enables farmers to live from sustainable coffee production and not rely on external aid.
The Kaffee-Kooperative places great importance on sustainability and social responsibility. Here are some of the key initiatives:
The company has already received several awards, including the 'Eine Welt Medaille' in bronze for responsible entrepreneurship. Additionally, the Kaffee-Kooperative has been highlighted in various media reports, such as the ZDF documentary "Gut gebrĂĽht."
The Kaffee-Kooperative represents a new approach in coffee trade that focuses on fair trade, sustainability, and social responsibility, providing a win-win situation for all parties involved – from coffee farmers to consumers.
