Coffee Tradition

More than 200 years of Guatemala’s history are linked to the production of the best coffee in the world.

In 2018, the Guatemalan coffee tradition was declared an Intangible Heritage of the Nation.

Our coffee stands out worldwide for its exceptional quality and special production process. Coffee production generates between 3% and 3.5% of the country’s GDP and coffee grain exports are equivalent to 25% of the total agricultural exports.

In Guatemala, more than 125 thousand families produce coffee, which makes it the agro-industrial product that generates more jobs steadily.

United by Guatemalan Coffees, we pursue a sustainable coffee production, and promote the economic, social, environmental and cultural development of the country.
