Koakaka Cooperative

For nearly 20 years, the Koakaka Cooperative has worked to improve the livelihood of its members whilst preserving the local environment. Though a delicate balance is necessary to excel at both, the quality of the coffees they produce is proof that their efforts have been successful.

Meet Zelcafe

Based in Antigua, Zelcafe is the milling and exporting business of Guatemala’s renowned Zelaya family. We have been sourcing coffee from the Zelayas since 2008, as we share in their commitment to producing delicious, high quality coffee with a deep sense of environmental and social responsibility.

Meet Pergamino

In Colombia, we are proud to partner with Pergamino, a progressive, family-owned company, dedicated to producing, sourcing and exporting exceptional coffee.

The Umuvumu Project

Through the Umuvumu Project, MCM’s roasting partners will have the opportunity to donate directly to the children of Umuvumu Kindergarten by raising money through bean sales and promotion of the project.

Maraba Cooperative

In the local Kinyarwanda language, ‘Abahuzamugambi Ba Kawa’ means ‘Together we work the coffee’. The name is fitting, as the cooperative has played a key role in the rebuilding of Rwanda’s coffee industry.
