|---|---|---|
COOXUPÉ began its activities in grading, quality control and commercialization back in 1957. After achieving consistency of its standards and considerable volume of production, in 1984 the board of Directors decided to open an Export Department in Santos staffed with experienced professionals. Direct exports by COOXUPÉ reached 1.8 million bags in 2008, achieving first place among Brazil’s coffee exporters and the largest exporter of Arabica coffees. Today, COOXUPÉ is the largest private coffee cooperative in the world with 12.000 members with farms in the prime growing areas of Minas Gerais and São Paulo, producing Brazil’s finest Arabica coffees. The increasing importance of specialty coffees in world markets was also noted by COOXUPÉ’s Directors and a Specialty Coffee Department was formed to follow the growth of Gourmet quality coffees. Nowadays, out of our 12.000 members, 43% are already participating in sustainable programs, where the high quality, the care with the environment and the respect for social aspects are paramount. All these programs have full traceability, giving our customers transparency and reliability towards final consumer. For more information, please visit our site wwww.cooxupesantos.com.br |
