excellent coffees from around the world and to actively
promote local entrepreneurship within the coffee producing
countries through our cooperation.
The Cooperation
Consumer
By drinking our coffee you support entrepreneurial vision in
coffee producing countries and help our partners to secure their
long term economic success.
We buy our excellent coffees from hand-picked producers which
convince us from our personal and entrepreneurial stand point.
12 Pounds creates new markets for producers and enables its
customers ultimate enjoyment.
In the selection of our coffees, we emphasize on:
1) Excellent quality coffee
2) Convincing Entrepreneurs
3) Sustainable Production
Partner
Our partners include farmers‘ organizations that, due to their
entrepreneurial vision, produce excellent coffee. Their goal is to
grow and act independently without the support of development
aid organizations. The profitable developments of the coffee farms
allow further investment in education, health and leads to an
overall stability of the coffee region.
Our annual
project 2012
ACCSO acts as an umbrella organization of 4 0 0 coffee
producers in Guatemala. T heir goal is to provide a
platform for small coffee farmers, which allows them
the coordinated sale of coffee to exporters, without
being dependent on so called
“coyotes” (middlemen).
Domingo Santos is the president
of ACCSO and, together with his
wife and two children, lives on
his 2.5 hectare coffee farm near
Esquipulas, Guatemala. As a
young farmer he was interested
in a different approach and

rented to the members of the cooperative for a small

such a big investment but the motivation is high and the
goal very clear: better coffee quality eases market
access and enables better prices.
Join us and invest in this partner cooperative and in the
quality of your coffee!
