Roaster Notes
Located in Poço Fundo, South Minas, Coopfam was founded over 30 years ago as an association of family farmers. In 1998, it became the first Fairtrade certified coffee cooperative in the country. Today, they pride themselves on being one of the largest smallholder producer cooperatives in Brazil, supporting over 800 families.
They took a pioneering approach to sourcing coffee through a relationship model, placing emphasis on direct trade as a way to support thriving livelihoods for producers at origin. They earned Roast Magazine's prestigious 'Roaster of the Year' award in 2013, are home to the first barista union in the USA and are currently transitioning to a worker-owned company. Gimme! Coffee roasts all their coffee on two Probat drum-style roasters at their facility in Ithaca, NY.
