A farm serving its community

Located in the village of Shantawene, in Ethiopia's Sidama region, Gatta Farm is much more than a coffee producer. Founded by Mulugeta Dukamoand his brother Asefa Dukamo, the farm was conceived from the outset as a driver of local development.

Coffee cultivation, harvesting, and processing are primarily carried out by local residents. Women play a crucial role in quality control and post-harvest processing. By offering fair wages and decent working conditions, the farm directly contributes to improving the local standard of living.

Gatta Farm also includes a drying station, a lodge, and a training center. The latter welcomes interns each year to train them in coffee processing techniques, thereby creating sustainable learning and employment opportunities.

Thanks to its social commitment, environmental respect, and exceptional terroir, Gatta Farm produces high-quality coffees while strengthening the communities that surround it.

An exceptional terroir for Ethiopian coffee

The Sidama region is one of the most renowned in Ethiopia for high-quality coffee production. It spans fertile highlands where nearly half of the land is cultivated. Thanks to high altitude, a cool climate, and over 2500 mm of rain per year, coffee cherries mature slowly, developing remarkable aromatic complexity. This prolonged maturation gives rise to coffees with floral, fruity, and delicate profiles, highly prized on the international market.

Sidama is home to over 50 cooperatives and 200 washing stations, testament to the importance of coffee cultivation in the region. The rivers and lakes that crisscross the landscape contribute to the richness of the soil and local biodiversity. This unique terroir, combined with ancestral know-how, makes Sidama an essential benchmark in the world of specialty coffee.
