Our History
We were founded in 2007 as the Agricultural Producers Association by a group of 50 coffee-growing families who sought to market their product in a more equitable and sustainable way. In 2021, aiming to improve the organization's performance in the productive, technical, and administrative areas, we began the process of changing our legal name to Cooperativa Agraria La Flor del Café, from Rodriguez de Mendoza.
