Semilla’s relationship with Baho Coffee (which runs the Muzo station) operates
slightly differently than others, largely due to differences inherent to coffee
production in East Africa. For example, rather than working directly with a
producer or producer group in a specific part of the country, the relationship is
with Emmanuel Rusatira who owns and operates washing stations across
Rwanda. That being said, thanks to the incredible efforts of the Baho Coffee
team, Semilla know purchases only traceable microlots that are produced by
single smallholders or smallholder groups, defined by identity or geographical
location.
