The Story of Mutitu Coffee Factory
Mutira Farmers Cooperative Society is found in Kirinyaga county on the expansive slopes of Mount Kenya. The Cooperative Society was formed in 1951, with most of the factories in the Society being built in the 1960s. Secretary Manager Mr Boniface Muchiri oversees the day to day operations. Member factories are Mutitu, Kagumo, Ngorano, Mugaya, Karii, Kiangundu and Kiamutira. The cooperative head quarters and offices sit at the Kagumo factory. The farmer members of the Society are trained in Good Agricultural Practices, and have undergone certifications with Utz, 4C, Rainforest Alliance and FairTrade. The factory is receiving assistance from our field partner Coffee Management Services (CMS). CMS’s long term goals with the Mutira Cooperative are increasing coffee production through farmer training, making easily ready access to inputs, Good Agricultural Practice seminars, and providing the most current printed materials on sustainable farming.
