Connecting Coffee Buyers With Sustainable Origin Projects

The World of Coffee Expo was a resounding success, and we had the pleasure of meeting many fellow coffee enthusiasts. As we engaged in meaningful conversations and learned from one another, we realized it's been a while since we refreshed memories about who we are and what we do. In this article, we will provide a brief recap of ElevaFinca.



About Us:

ElevaFinca is dedicated to facilitating services at origin for buyers, offering tailored solutions to meet their environmental and social impact objectives. We work closely with an alliance of cooperatives, providing a wide range of offerings and reliable procurement services. Our commodities are sourced from cooperatives participating in agroforestry projects launched and financed by the Urapi Sustainable Land Use Fund, a private equity fund.


Geographical Focus:

Currently, we are actively engaged in coffee operations in Peru and Colombia, and we have exciting plans to expand our activities to Honduras this year. 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.


Dry Mills:

We are proud to announce the opening of our dry mill facilities. In Colombia, our state-of-the-art dry mill plant, De La Sierra Trilladora, is strategically located in Santa Marta, Magdalena Department. With a processing capacity of 52 bags of 70 kg per hour for excelso and 9 bags of 70 kg per hour for microlots, honey, and natural coffee, we ensure the highest quality standards.

In Peru, Café Selva Norte operates our dry mill, with an impressive capacity of 10 tons per hour. This allows for efficient processing, enabling us to handle a full container of coffee within approximately 3.5 hours. With the capability to process four full containers daily, we ensure timely delivery and maintain the integrity of the beans. Full article link.



Quality Control Operations & Logistics:

We prioritize quality control and efficient logistics for our coffee exports. We monitor social and financial evaluations, contract management, and ensure adherence to our high standards. Within our Dry Mills in Peru and Colombia, all contracts undergo thorough processing and evaluation. Our quality control team conducts sampling, evaluation, and pre-shipment preparations. Post-process evaluations are also carried out to minimize risks. Through our meticulous quality control operations and streamlined logistics, we strive to deliver exceptional coffee while maintaining transparency and trust with our partners. This also allows us to provide traceability and reports for each exportation.


At ElevaFinca, we are committed to fostering sustainable sourcing practices, promoting social responsibility, and supporting local communities. We are excited about the future and the positive impact we can create together.
