The Chelelektu washing station was built in 2010 and processes up to 950,000kg of ripe coffee cherries each year from its 363 contributing producers. The Chelelektu farmers are small-scale growers who bring ripe cherries to the washing station for processing. Coffees are dried on 134 raised beds in the sun across the washing stations almost 3 hectares of land. Our friends at BNT then handled the dry milling and hand sorting of our lot of green coffee prior to export.
