OPCAAC-

Organizacion de Productores de Cafe de Angel Albino Corzo.

A partnership of 14 regional cooperatives (in 2006) in Chiapas Mexico. The cooperatives share resources in the production and export of green coffee. They use the additional income they receive from selling fair trade and organic coffee to improve their coffee producing infrastructure: improving coffee drying patios, building wet fermentation tanks, buying additional depulping machines, etc. This strengthens the producers independence from outsourcing and costly middlemen.
