About
Gondo Coffee Factory, established in 1998 in Murang’a County, works with 727 local producers who selectively hand-pick ripe cherries from small farms during two annual harvest seasons. The coffee is processed the same day using careful pulping, 16–18 hour fermentation, water recycling, and sun-drying practices to maintain quality and protect the environment. Located near Mount Kenya, the Kihoya region is surrounded by diverse wildlife and indigenous trees, with most farmers transporting their coffee to the washing station by motorbike or collection truck.
