Ricky Puustinen's Company Details
Kishe' Coffee is a social enterprise founded and operated by our partner, FECCEG, a Guatemalan Cooperative, who have come together as a grassroots development initiative. Their mission is to decrease economic risk for small-scale woman farmers, who are the sole providers for their families, and to support sustainable growth. www.kishefoods.comIMPACTMost of the women in Guatemala are struggling to have a voice for equality in leadership, social activities, and education. This country has a rich history in growing the world's most delicious coffee for many generations, however, the business of coffee has always been overseen by men. Kishe' has developed and found a path to provide women a way to evolve through education and supporting basic needs like food and health programs. This cooperative helps to train and empower women to reach new heights, in a developing country, that supplies the world with specialty coffee.
