GUATEMALA EL PLATANILLO RAINFOREST ALLIANCE

Guatemala El Platanillo Rainforest Alliance

Thanks to joint efforts of EFICO Foundation and Finca El Platanillo, the plantation and dry mill became Rainforest Alliance certified in 2005. During the international competition Long Beach in May 2007, this coffee was classified among the best Rainforest Alliance certified coffees in the world.

In September 2011, Finca El Platanillo became the world’s first coffee farm to be Rainforest Alliance Verified as Climate Friendly. This was the result of 4 years of intensive research and field work of EFICO Foundation, ANACAFE, Rainforest Alliance, Cotesco and other partners.

Since 2004, a primary school was built thanks to the support of the EFICO Foundation, Cotesco and its partners.
Also a computer center, health care, sports activities and vegetable gardens to improve nutrition were put in place. Scholarships & training were organized to empower women and currently quality education and the use of technological devices are being promoted, leading to the stimulation of increased access to matching job opportunities.
