Who We Are

The Society’s headquarters is at Kanja Market – behind the Chiefs camp and operates 3 wet mills namely: Kanja Factory, Kathande Factory & Mbuinjeru Factory.

We carry out farming activities, collect coffee from our registered producers, conduct wet processing, handle marketing, and ensure timely payments are made to the respective producers.
