Coffee Pacifica begins shipping PNG coffee to USA
Contracts with Rwanda co-operative to purchase premium quality Arabica green beans.
13/07/05 Coffee Pacifica, Inc. has announced that it has entered into an agreement to purchase 300 sixty kilogram bags of premium quality Arabica green beans from a coffee growers' co-operative in Western Rwanda.
This co-operative coffee is grown on rich volcanic soils in altitudes ranging from 5,400 to 5,900 feet (1,650 to 1,800 meters) above sea level and within 10 km of the area where coffee was first introduced to Rwanda nearly a century ago. It is of the Bourbon variety and fully washed in the co-operative's own washing station.
Establishing a relationship with a co-operative in Rwanda augments Coffee Pacifica's sales strategy to become a leading "Growers Direct" coffee distributor focusing solely on coffee from co-operatives; paying co-operatives premium prices, providing consultation on improvement of coffee quality, management of the co-operatives, whilst introducing the benefits of downstream marketing.
Additionally, Coffee Pacifica has also commenced shipping its 2005 crop of Papua New Guinea green bean coffee to United States.
