The Story of Karimikui Coffee Factory
Kenya Rungeto Karimikui represents coffee from the Karimikui factory in Kirinyaga County. This factory, along with the Kii and Kangoi factories, comprise the Rungeto Farmers’ Cooperative Society. The Rungeto FCS was founded in 1997 as a reorganization of the former Ngiriama Cooperative. Building upon the region's longstanding reputation for high-quality coffee, Runget0 FCS has implemented several processes to further elevate quality and address environmental sustainability. For example, it installed easy-to-clean tiles on all the washing channel fermentation tanks. It organizes agronomy trainings to educate farmers about disease prevention within susceptible varietals. And additionally, it ensures that water from coffee processing is reused in other areas of the farm.
