AWDA believes that
quality of coffee is the most important factor in the sector.
Therefore:
Coffee purchase
from auction center is focusing only on the best quality coffees. The
purchaser cautiously selects the best lots before bidding for the
coffees.
Regional coffee
collection is made through our collection station carried out
carefully by our trained staffs. Red cherry is collected /purchased
from the peasants, such pulping and washing activities, drying and
storing are all organized to assure quality supplies. Coffee
transportation to Addis Ababa cleaning plant is done through its own
fleets, keeping the coffee safe from unnecessary contacts.
As the Company
pays special attention for quality of coffee, it has its own
coffee-liquoring laboratory equipped with all the necessary
equipments. A senior liquoror is in charge of the unit that ascertains
the quality of coffee, through cupping - whether the coffee prepared
for export is cleaned and handpicked as per the generally accepted
standard for Ethiopian coffee and compliant with our clients'
requirement.
Besides, all the
Company's coffees ready for export are inspected by Coffee and Tea
Quality Control & Inspection Center, which is an independent
regulatory body. Due to these rigorous quality inspections, all
clients are assured of receiving excellent quality Ethiopian coffee.
