Honduras Comsa - Fairtrade Organic
COMSA was founded in 2001 by 69 farmers who wanted to make their coffee businesses more profitable. At the time, most coffee in Honduras was grown using chemicals. Production was high, but coffee quality and prices were low, meaning many farmers struggled to cover their costs.
They focused on improving coffee quality and encouraging organic, chemical-free farming. Over the years, the cooperative has grown to around 1,200 members who now produce high-quality organic specialty coffee. They also own their own warehouses and coffee processing plant.
COMSA is also committed to supporting its farming community. As well as agriculture, they focus on education and social development. They run a primary school and provide organic farming courses for farmers from other parts of Honduras and the wider region.
