Busanze coffee washing station is a new coffee washing station started operation in 2016 by IMPEXCOR coffee company and local farmers of Nyaruguru district. The washing station is located at the edges of Nyungwe forest. This allows most coffee trees around the area to grow in shades under trees. This allows beans to be rich in density and aroma. Busanze coffee story is not only about the quality and is also about the history and patriotism of Nyaruguru people. Usually, Nyaruguru district is known as the home of the most resilient people in the nation. After the genocide against the Tutsi, Nyaruguru is now a beacon of unity and reconciliation. It is in that context Busanze coffee washing station is playing its role by grouping farmers in cooperatives based on the context of each village. A good example is a successful story of Cooperative Umurego Nteko (KUN) that composed of 82 farmers mainly young men and women mostly from families of both genocide survivors and perpetrators.
The Busanze region is known as the home of wonderful coffee in recent days. In 2014, our partner company (IMPEXCOR Coffee) initiated a wave of planting new trees in the area where they distributed thousands of trees to local farmers who were planting other crops such as bananas and beans. After the successful first harvest, hundreds of other farmers joined the journey and now coffee has become the main income generation to so many farmers around Busanze and surrounding villages. Not only business relationships but this practice also created the sense of ownership and the trust that motivates farmers to improve the quality of the coffee. It is for that reason Busanze coffee has won awards in the last couple of years including Alliance cup of excellence in 2018.
