MEET THE PRODUCERS

The Halo Beriti washing station serves around 2,200 producers from the region. Boledu, founded in 2018, means "source" in the local language and combines over 12 years of experience in coffee from both Abyote Ageze and Mebrahtu Aynalem, who have been producing and exporting both natural and washed high-end traceable beans in their own washing stations and collecting quality coffees from different small farmers, rather than purchasing from the Ethiopian Coffee Exchange (ECX). They pre-finance the washing station owners who agree to supply them. This contributes to increased transparency and consistency. 

Before the harvest, Boledu train them and explain the standards of cherry collection for speciality coffee and the premiums that come with it. They have a quality supervisor at the washing stations looking into who is bringing good quality and who isn’t. Their job is really important! They know when someone mixes unripe cherries with the ripe ones. 

Boledu was among the best-ranked producers on Ethiopia's first Cup of Excellence in 2020. They ranked 21 with a coffee with notes of "cola, cherry, pomegranate, strawberry, cinnamon, pineapple, strong cinnamon sour, fruity, dry fruits, chocolate, mango and cocoa nibs".
