MT ELGON AGROFORESTRY COMMUNITIES COOPERATIVE ENTERPRISE - MEACCE
Is a farmer-owned Secondary level organization owned by 12 primaries with a combined membership of 3,282 farmers (655 females) that produce certified Fairtrade Organic Washed Bugisu Arabica Coffee grown on the slopes of Mt Elgon with the mandate to increase farmer household income.
The ultimate goal of MEACCE is to ensure that the little proceeds and premiums generated from the sale of our members’ coffee are invested in community development projects that are geared towards improving their standards of living, climate change adaptation and mitigation as well as promoting gender equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) plus safeguarding people in all aspects of economy and governance.
