The Amucafé Sourcing Partnership
A strategic sourcing alliance between Amucafe and Origin Bridge. We are now selecting one committed roasting partner.
In Belén de Umbría, Risaralda, the women of Amucafé are redefining their role in the supply chain by taking ownership of technical processing and commercialization.
Lots are selected from a defined group of member producers, focusing on strengthening quality systems and producer autonomy.
Origin Bridge facilitates long-term market access, transparent pricing structures, and direct feedback loops between producers and professional roasters.
From Coffee Pulp to Cleaner Streams
Coffee pulp used to wash into local streams around Cuchilla de San Juan. The women of Amucafe are changing that with worm-based composting that returns nutrients to nearby farms.
Today they process about 10% of the available pulp, which means 90% remains a clear scaling opportunity for one committed roasting partner.
10% processed today — 90% impact potential A roasting partnership funds additional composting beds, increases pulp processing volume, and reduces pressure on local waterways.
Gender Equity
Direct market access enables women to receive, manage, and reinvest quality premiums independently, bypassing traditional intermediaries.
Quality Development
Targeted investment in agronomy and processing infrastructure directly improves cup quality, consistency, and lot separation.
Supply Resilience
Long-term commitments create predictable income streams and reduce volatility at the farm level, securing future harvests.
