Global interest soars in Kenyan Coffee at Nyeri coffee expo

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s efforts to protect coffee farmers from middlemen exploitation are yielding positive results. Currently, more than twenty international buyers are participating in a week-long Coffee Expo in Nyeri.

These buyers come from various countries, including the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Egypt, South Africa, the UK, US, Germany, Singapore, and China. They plan to visit farms to observe Kenyan coffee cultivation and make direct purchases at the factory.

This initiative aims to eliminate middlemen in the supply chain, leading to increased revenues for farmers and investors. Similar positive outcomes have already been witnessed in Kericho, Nandi, and Bomet counties, where farmers have doubled their earnings by selling directly to a South Korean company.

Furthermore, the Deputy President recently negotiated a deal with Java Coffee Company to purchase 10,000 bags of coffee directly from farmers.

These arrangements between Kenyan farmers and international buyers are expected to establish long-term trade partnerships. Farmers stand to benefit not only financially but also from improved coffee production, thanks to instant feedback from their customers.

Although Kenyan coffee is renowned worldwide for its quality, farmers often do not receive the income they deserve from their production. While this is a step in the right direction, the twenty international buyers cannot purchase all the coffee produced in Nyeri and other coffee-producing counties.

Therefore, it is essential for the government to remain vigilant and proactive in identifying and developing new markets for Kenyan coffee. By doing so, the government can offer farmers diversified opportunities, reduce their reliance on a limited range of markets, and ultimately promote greater economic stability and growth within the Kenyan coffee industry.

This approach will ensure a brighter and more sustainable future for dedicated coffee producers and safeguard the rich heritage and quality of Kenyan coffee for generations to come.
