Burundi Businde Coffee

The Businde washing station, owned by Zuberi Mastiti of Matraco Coffee, is located in Kayanza which is close to the Rwanda border. The centralised station processes the cherry of up to 650 surrounding farming families; serving as a nucleus within the community. Having such a localised position provides support through staff, funds, construction and distribution of agricultural products. By working with the Businde station, local producers received a premium that was 20% more than the market rate this season and the station itself pays its staff almost 60% above the rate of casual labour in Burundi. Matraco Coffee aids nearby farmers by distributing coffee pulp, which acts as fertiliser, and also donates seedlings to their farms to help improve their yield. This coffee was sourced by Raw Material who partner with Zuberi Mastiti. They work to secure higher profits for coffee producers and washing stations, ensuring that they receive 100% of profits.

A premium home-brewed coffee is still less expensive than a cafe

Issue: With the continuing economic uncertainty that COVID brings, many are choosing to tighten the purse strings and are replacing luxuries with cheaper, more basic products.For more: Comunicaffe International

...However, whilst the purse strings may need to tighten, a premium home-brewed coffee or tea is still less expensive than buying individual drinks on the go. Many have already taken the time to improve their brewing skills since the outbreak, and so now have the equipment and know-how to recreate that authentic coffee shop experience from home. If this isn't you, then there really is no better time to start, and better yet, at GUSTATORY you’ll find plenty of affordable options from our range of independents to support you in doing just that. Easy to find and it won’t cost you the earth for these to be delivered.
