The Benti Nenqa washing station is named for the kebele, or village, where the coffee is harvested. The growers from the surrounding community bring their cherries to this washing station at METAD’s 200 hectare farm in Hambela for further processing.

Our partners at METAD developed their Out-growers Program in 2013. METAD is a family run business, with coffee at their roots for generations. They wanted to invest and support nearby coffee growing communities through this program, which has grown to over 6,500 memberships across both regions in Hambela and Gedeb. There are currently 14 farmer associations, named after their kebele, with 7 in each region. Growers who are part of the program receive training from METAD’s team from the start. They are provided free seedlings and professional guidance at every stage of production, as well as pre and post harvest training to continue their professional development.

This coffee from the Benti Nenqa kebele is grown at an elevation between 1900-2250 meters. It is fully washed using an eco-friendly wet processing infrastructure. An organic coffee, METAD has certified not only its own farms and processing plants but also the farms of those participating in the out-grower’s program.
