Operation Cherrie Red "Red Cherry Initiative" (ORC) is a project to improve the quality of small-scale farms, mainly to encourage soybean farmers and surprise roasters. Trabocca, the largest coffee bean manufacturer in the Netherlands, invited all Ethiopian farms to produce small batches of beans of about 1500-3000 kg (25,050 bags) before the harvest season. Women can only choose fully 100% ripe red cherries, which varies greatly in flavor. So careful-eyed and industrious Ethiopian women are important drivers of the Red Cherry project.

Operation Red Cherry is also a reinforcing method, which makes the farm pay more attention to the process of selecting beans. The prices of these coffees are also relatively high. Red Cherry Action has water washing, sun-drying beans, half-washing, half-sun, experimental coffee and so on. The main producing areas are Yegashev, Sidamo, Penga Forest, Lekanti, Ken Bata, Iruba, Hara, Lim, and joined Coroja Golocha in 2011 (near Hara). These are unique and can fully show the flavor of Ethiopian beans. Trabocca will choose from the coffee after receiving it. Farms that have passed the cup test quality test in Ethiopia and the Netherlands will pay a large bonus, with a passing score of more than 88 points to become a good coffee for the Red Cherry program. Trabocca, the promoter of the Red Cherry project, invested all the profits earned in the past few years in the cooperative farm. Trabocca stressed that this is a plan with no profit, so the company only uses four people, including the boss and secretary, to implement the red cherry project, and other administrative related matters are supported by the parent company to reduce administrative expenses, and all the profits are returned to the cooperative farm.

These beans, whether in the sun or in water, represent the efforts of farmers and related personnel. Red cherry Wottuna Boltuma Watima water-washed beans are organic beans certified by the Fair Trade Association. They are harvested by hand and sent to Addis Ababa Addis Ababa for final film removal and bagging.
