Coffee is Ethiopia's main economic crop and the country's largest crop export and important industry. It accounts for 60% of Ethiopia's total export value and supports many small farms, as well as sugar, bananas and cotton. It is also Ethiopia's largest and important commodity export crop after oil, and it is also the largest export of Elaraby in Africa, with a total value of about US $300 million in 1997. in terms of total production, 94% are small farms and 6% are government agencies. because many farms are scattered and grow other crops, it has been difficult to integrate the figures correctly. However, the country's official coffee cultivation area is at least 400000 hectares, and the Ethiopian government encourages local farmers to improve their quality and productivity so that coffee farmers can expand their business scale and increase production capacity and exports.

The bean comes from a single farm, Ethiopia, and is processed by the Waka Cooperative (Worka cooperative). Alemayehu Alako Farm is a member of the Waka Cooperative.

Woka Cooperative, located in the south of Gedeb District, was founded in 2005, and joined the famous Yejia Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union (YCFCU,Yirgacheffe Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union) that year, which is famous for producing high quality sun Ye Jia Coffee Farmer. The Waka Cooperative has about 300 coffee farmers. YCFCU was founded in 2002 and includes 26 other cooperatives serving more than 45000 coffee farmers.
