Operation Cherrie Red's "Red Cherry Project" (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 before the harvest season to produce small batches of beans of about 1500-3000 kg (25Muk 50 bags). Women can only choose fully 100% ripe red cherries. There is a big difference in the flavor of brewed coffee, so careful-eyed and industrious Ethiopian women are an important driver of the Red Cherry project. Initiated by Dutch trader Trabocca and local farmers since 2007, 100% ripe red coffee cherries are harvested by hand at the beginning of the harvest season, indicating that each coffee seed is ripe and rich in nutrients In the next few years, Red Cherry plans to purchase additional facilities such as sun scaffolding, cherry peeling machine, coffee bean sorting machine, and cup testing laboratory for the producing area. Therefore, the coffee beans of the Red Cherry project are already a guarantee of high quality.

In terms of treatment methods, red cherries are planned to be washed with water, sun-dried beans, half-washed, half-sun, experimental coffee and so on. The main producing areas are Yegashev, Sidamo, Penga Forest, Lekanti, Kenbata, Irubabo, Hara, Lim, etc., which are all unique in flavor and can fully show the flavor of Ethiopian beans. After receiving the coffee, Trabocca will choose from it, and farms that pass 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 an unprofitable plan, 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.
