ElevaFinca is dedicated to facilitating services at origin for buyers, offering tailored solutions to meet their environmental and social impact objectives.
Currently, we are actively engaged in coffee operations in Peru and Colombia, and we have exciting plans to expand our activities to Honduras. Our dedicated focus on South America enables us to immerse ourselves in the vibrant coffee-growing regions, where we have fostered strong relationships with local producers and cooperatives. To support our operations, we have established technical teams and offices at the coffee origins.
