Mt. Elgon Coffee: Quality, Sustainability, and Community Impact
The farmers of Mt. Elgon work tirelessly to produce coffee of exceptional quality, yet they often receive less than $1 per pound, despite their invaluable contributions. MEACCE Ltd is committed to changing this by ensuring that proceeds and premiums from every sale are reinvested in community-driven projects, aimed at elevating standards of living, promoting climate adaptation, and advancing gender equality and social inclusion (GESI).
Our goal is to build a socially and economically thriving community within a sustainable environment. MEACCE doesn’t trade in members’ coffee but empowers farmers to market their products to their greatest benefit. Our coffee scores 84+ points on the SCA scale, with notes of citrus, dark chocolate, tropical fruit, brown spices, and a sweet, well-balanced aftertaste. Grown predominantly by smallholder agroforestry communities, our coffee embodies a dedication to climate consciousness and gender justice.
Each cup of MEACCE coffee represents more than just excellent flavor. It signifies support for climate resilience, social equity, and the improvement of farmers' lives on the slopes of Mt. Elgon. Thank you for being part of this impact by enjoying MEACCE’s unique, high-quality coffee.
