SanCoffee was born in 2000 out of a dream shared by a group of coffee growers located around the town of Santo Antonio do Amparo, State of Minas Gerais. With great support and encouragement from Mr. Fernando Paiva, pioneer of specialty coffees in Campo das Vertentes since the 60’s, these producers acquired a warehouse and founded the cooperative.

Very early, these growers had a vision for the nascent specialty coffee market and for advancing coffee farming in the region. Over time, the infra- structure has evolved to state-of-the-art, fully automated, dry milling and warehousing solutions.

Since its beginning, SanCoffee has been a major driving force for the development of specialty coffee in the Campo das Vertentes.

Deeply inserted in the local community, SanCoffee is a proud supporter of initiatives to generate progress and prosperity through the coffee business.

Along with the member farms, the coop is engaged in several projects aiming social and environmental responsibility to ensure the sustainability of the coffee activity in the long term. As a result of these efforts, Sancoffee has been awarded the B-Corp seal in 2019.

In commercial terms, SanCoffee has always been guided by transparency and trust, resulting in long lasting relationships around the world, with most customers over 10 years.

Nowadays, consistency, innovation, integrity, stewardship and transparency, still govern the actions of SanCoffee, seeking to constantly adapt to new market trends and using coffee as carrier to create a better life for all those involved.

We are so excited to connect with such an exciting group of people and we are grateful to be able to share exciting range of coffees they produce. We are looking forward to much more!
