The Human Bean Company

What the Human Bean Company proposes, and what we have already initiated, is to pay the indigenous producers approximately double what they are normally paid for their weavings and the fair market price, or higher, for their coffee. Since we are establishing direct markets for the products we feel that we can still offer fair prices to the end buyer. We are working in partnership with the producer and when there are profits they will be used to help develop community projects in the indigenous communities at the direction of the people in those communities.
