Mexico - Triunfo Verde Cooperative - FTO

This coffee comes from Chiapas region in the buffer zone of the El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve. Not only is this one of our Fair Trade and Organic (FTO) offerings, it also comes from the Women Producers Program from Cafe Imports, which we are proud to support. 
The women's association for Triunfo Verde Co-op has 51 members who have come together in order to collectively face some of the issues that affect women farmers in Mexico, including gender-based domestic violence, legal obstacles to obtaining land ownership, limited opportunities to diversify the family income, fewer educational opportunities, and economic dependence on men. Specifically the group has come together to launch a financial program for women called FinMujer (Financing of the Coffee Woman). This initiative seeks to distribute funds for farm renovation, home improvements, the establishment of savings funds, and more.
