The Story of Rui Ruiru Coffee Factory
Until 2014, the Rui Ruiru Processing Station, which was part of the Mathira North Cooperative, was renowned for producing high-quality coffee. But she was forced to stop working, she began to decline. In 2020, through the Ministry of Agriculture and the Nyeri County Government, representatives of Rui Ruiru Station, led by village headman Charles Maina, approached Crowd Farm Africa to help them revive the station. In the first year after resumption of operation, the station was able to collect 24,000 kg of coffee cherries. In 2021, production doubled to 60,000 kg of berries. Rui Ruiru Coffee factory now produces natural coffee that is finished at the New Kenya Planters Co-operative Union station. As a result, many local households have begun to rehabilitate their coffee plantations, the income from which will help farmers educate their children, take care of their health and improve the infrastructure of their homes. In addition, this project is a source of employment for thousands of those involved in the coffee value chain.
