Consume differently, transport differently
We maintain direct contact with the producers, we only import organic products, we work with completely different pricing models than conventional importers - somehow everything should be a little different and better. But in one area Café Chavalo has been just as conventional as everyone else: our goods travelled from south to north on container ships belonging to the major shipping companies.
Our sailing coffee is different: it was shipped from Central America to Europe on the cargo ship Avontuur. Captain Cornelius Bockermann's team thus connects sustainable producers with responsible consumers.
This coffee contains the power of the wind
What we do today determines how we live tomorrow: the more than 90,000 container ships currently in operation are by far the biggest polluters in the transport sector. The Avontuur, built in 1920, is the symbol of a movement that not only shows the immense amount of pollutant emissions caused by the large separation between the production site and the place of distribution, but also offers the solution through low-emission transport.
Refined in Central America
This coffee is roasted and packaged directly in Nicaragua by employees of UCA Tierra Nueva. This means that a much higher proportion of the added value remains in Nicaragua.
Organic coffee from small farmers in Nicaragua
The organic green coffee comes from the Tierra Nueva cooperative association in Nicaragua. Around 250 small farmers have joined together to form the association in order to market their harvest and improve living conditions in the countryside. At an altitude of between 700 and 1,200 meters, they cultivate coffee and turmeric, among other crops, on small plots of land in mixed crops.
Tierra Nueva is Café Chavalo's most important trading partner in Nicaragua and is itself a member of the cooperative in Germany. The small farmers in Nicaragua can therefore have a say in important issues relating to Café Chavalo eG in Germany at the general meeting.
