Founded as early as 1975, Hofsa Cooperative can be said to be the vanguard of the first wave of cooperative movement in Ethiopia. It joined the Yegashafi Cooperative Union (YCFYU) in 2002 and has passed Organic Certification (IFOAM) and Fair Trade Certification (Fairtrade International) under the guidance of the Alliance in recent years.

Water washing is the most traditional method in fine coffee. Coffee cherries are soaked in the sink for 24 murmurs for 36 hours, then fully fermented, then washed by water to remove pectin from the surface, and finally the raw beans with pods are obtained.

Coffee beans with pods are placed on an elevated net bed, dried in the sun, and finally show a beige appearance.

The dried pods are placed in a cool warehouse after about 3 months of ripening, and the shelling and bagging operations will be carried out before export.
