I meant that with any other product we always want to know every detail right down to the name of the cow before we buy a carton of milk its ups and downs we dont have that option with coffee at all because 95 percent of the market is dominated by a very opaque trading system and.

Is a big deal we can get very close to the coffee experts and the consumers its just fun pouring the coffee and getting the feedback. There is a bit of a back story to how he got here. 4 years ago some other discovered his passion for african coffee today hes an expert on this subject it takes 9 months before a crop can be harvested. This week to the main thing is to pick only the red buds the greens should stay on they need a few more days og thats why it has to be done by hand of life. To conduct our coffee cooperative is nestled in the hills of northern rwanda from here that exports coffee to europe. He wants to vastly improve on the methods of big name competitors he and his Business Partner alan the pira were roommates back in berlin today they are working to create jobs for people in new wonder. So. Many of the young people. Interest in getting into Coffee Business because their incomes in the Coffee Business tool all sorts. To change this narrative to make sure that you know. Coffee farmers and people who are involved in the coffee value chain better incomes and that will attract young. To come back into Coffee Business. Well coffee farm is wages have fallen in recent years the coffee Industry Sales have been increasing over the last 2 decades companies have managed to find ways to sell coffee at ever higher prices mainly in the form of capsules and pods. But wholesale prices have seen a dress to drop. Xander and alan want to make the coffee trade fair or like the clinic our coffee cooperative is their ideal partner the farmers here are independent entrepreneurs the cooperative pays good prices and a very special feature here women repeat a lot of the benefits. And thats thanks to a leak of a k. F. C. Shes been working in the coffee industry all her life and sells different varieties of coffee. Example and allan with a missing piece of the puzzle for her vision. That women coffee was. Brewing in the in my head every time and. When we made i said wow maybe even if women coffee maybe you have to discuss that with the men are both very very hot but. Yeah. Although coffee production is physically hard work its usually done by women but when it comes to pay and making the important decisions men usually still have the say in parliament we have a big number of women but in the coffee Coffee Business somehow different because we have a big number of women. In the family processing but in our position of the seizure and of this isnt making we have much more number of women does kind of. So its why you have to empower women to. Look and shoot it at it is a good example she finds her own 80 coffee trees and has a demanding daily routine to get everything done. The over world will go on your mood i once ive taken the coffee beans to the cooperative i go home and look after the children. I make them something to eat and send one child to school for afternoon classes and then i take care of the household that way i can get all my work done. d so much that is. Nearing going. To work this meet once a week to discuss Financial Issues or work out how best to support each other they also make crafts which brings in extra income in addition to the coffee. Many of the Older Workers lived through the genocide in rwanda 25 years ago and many lost family members land and work united there working for a better future. It will mend has many activities to do at home we must to have. Something i mean from thats activity so that she can convince the man because this is something which is. Coming in the family from the time she is not around at all. Harvesting is a painstaking process. After the coffee cherries are picked they have to be washed. The women in the cooperative earn twice as much as other coffee farmers in rwanda the profits are distributed evenly. Ok now were going into a very broad. Thats where the bins where the bins are going to get out of the house the process is poured powdered. I the red husks are used by the farm is as fertilizer. As you come the coffee this is where the coffee beans go after the cherry has been discarded and theyve been washed and fermented and then when theyre wet you can clearly see which beams are good in which arent and then they have to be sorted again by hand which youve been. Angelica has developed her own coffee brand with softer and alan anjan leaks finest the brand and the company both belong to the women in the cooperative. I. Think that. Connects the coffee beans have to dry so they are spread out on wooden wrecks for at least 15 days. But. This is by no means the last step in the production of finest the next undertaken by the womens caucus have is a very special one. Making the transportation of coffee more environmentally friendly is a big goal and nothing symbolizes that goal more than the one tour. Its the key to achieving a truly sustainable product chain. Captain you are him everything has been fairing goods across the oceans for many years this time its 1000 sacks of Fair Trade Coffee from central america. For me. Its great that i can participate in such a project as a sailor i have few opportunities to use my professional qualifications in meaningful projects that normally when i work on a ship are all burning you have your line carrying goods that i dont really want to transport you simply different here thats why im so glad i can work here what doesnt make up like. The oven to a transports its cargoes in the same way as our ancestors did nowadays coffee normie arrives in europe from the worlds coffee growing regions by container ship. The one that i want to one side with the government or we want to set an example underscore that its possible to transport cargo with low emissions. In addition we want to question whether its really necessary to ship so many goods half way around the world just to consume them air and whether we might be able to rethink it all and transport less all the biggest. Emissions standards of the type on german roads are virtually nonexistent at sea container ship transportation is very cheap but extremely harmful to the environment and addition to c o 2 the worlds merchant fleets emit huge clowns of nitrogen dioxide particulate matter and soffit dioxide. The Environmental Impact of a sailing for a cell on the other hand is largely negligible. As it is but its very much we only use the engine when its necessary to maneuver or for safety reasons we do not use it to get somewhere faster and if there is no wind we simply wait. With a stop of this the crew is at sea for 3 courses of the year. Quit his job as a social worker to join the crew. This is whats most fun sail down sail up steering hoisting tacking thats my job here on board. The majority of the crew works unpaid in exchange for learning how to sail they also want to support a movement to change global trade. Change starts with a small group of people who others dismisses dreamers. And we dont mind being perceived as such. But increasingly people are starting to take us more seriously. Is cell powered for a transport really a viable alternative for the future most shipping companies both at the risks. They all have the deadline pressure everything has to be somewhere at a certain time and nobody has the time to wait for the goods to arrive a little later nowadays everything has to be delivered just in time. Just in time for that. But everything is slowly getting underway when power is saves on expensive feel research is are looking for ways to combine both in a hybrid vessels that will be able to sailing goodwins and use their engine in calm conditions the oven to it can transport 114 tons of cargo on this run its mainly coffee and cocoa the hold is located 3 nieces deep in the ships belly. To get to our load we have to climb through this little hatch up here. We have about a 1000 sacks of coffee on board and my chief mate checks on the load every day and thats important so it doesnt get damp we look to see if any moisture is accumulated somewhere. The cargo is slipped which can happen if the ship lurches violently as they have to. Be evan to voyage has covered over 18000 nautical miles now the crew is nearing hamburg. Coffee a fashionable drink from far away. Most of the wrist and the code better fed is passionately committed to good Fair Trade Coffee she says thats why she would gladly pay a higher price for her brew. And instead when i go into a shop to buy coffee i would say that a kilo of coffee should never cost less than 20. 00 euros. Just states also money from coffee regardless of whether its a luxury brand or cheap stuff from the supermarket fine even though its not in germany there is a roasting tax which we all pay and that is 2 years 19 that is a huge amount so there is no way that half a kilo can cost 399. 00 can you sign. The cheaper the coffee the less remains after tax for production and transportation but right now the calls main concern is to make it to the final. Tally 1st i think the biggest challenge will be to avoid any mistakes not to knock anything over as it is not to forget what im saying context and not to tremble and controllability when it is we want yeah those are the 3 things that always happen i thought in democracy thank. You very sorry. Shes got 10 minutes just struck her stuff this time shes mixing filter coffee with butter rum and not a concoction designed to taste like caramel candy. Its important that the taste of coffee remains dominant enough in the finished drink over the next hours the judges will sample coffee creations from 80 contestants. Group. The wonders coffee is among the best in africa 400000 people work in this sector. The capital kigali is the main transportation hub for exports. Silva and alan are breaking new ground as Coffee Traders in rwanda roasting the beans in the country of production rather than in europe in the coffee world that is still a rare exception. That we switched and were starting the roasting inhouse the beams are refined roasted packed and prepared for export here in kigali we are sending any raw being and from africa to europe to go along with us. This way the profits from the refining process stay in rwanda. After all the manual processing the roasted coffee is ready for export its available to buy in a german drugstore chain a kilo costs at least 230 s. The export of a high quality finished product to europe is a boon for the region it creates new jobs and the profits stay in africa. Its one way to combat poverty and economic migration. From the oven to as transporting unroasted green coffee its a roma does not fade on the long voyage now the ship is almost at its destination. But thats because im really very excited i was born and raised in hamburg and have been out and about at sea for 9 months and i find it really special to return home on board the album tour. I know how much sorts of. Believe. The oven tour is welcomed by 200. 00 volunteers friends and family. They all believe that sailing ships can revolutionize the way goods are transported. Canadia spoke a man who launched the whole project is here to welcome the crew without him none of them would be here. Thanks for being with us. But the man spent his life at sea and has seen what burning heavy oil does to the environment to change that he founded the company to the coast. Its possible to use all of your transport cleanly and we treat everyone in this chain fairly the farmers get a reasonable price and by the way the customers dont pay more than they do for coffee the comes by container ship if the price is the same only the profits are not so big thats clear and everyone in the chain shoulders the cost equally including the environmental aspect of. Salmon kuhlmann is one of the customers he is loaded 20 tons of coffee from mexico mainly theoretic a variety but also a few bags of robots to. His companys cotai keep it japanese where that means community. German consume is deal directly with coffee farmers in mexico sharing responsibility for the harvest. His payment policies are also unusual the coffee farmers who work for the company receive their money in advance and get a higher rate than is paid for goods bearing the. Trade seal. Type imports 20 tons of coffee from full farm is and one cooperative in mexico it aims to double the amount each year in 89 years 500 Small Farmers in mexico could supply coffee 2250000 households in germany. So far he has only imported the coffee now that found his son is opening the 1st time he cafe in hamburg. Oh i dont think so we have a very special treat for your birthday. That looks like the album to me it is what it was. Designed i created the initial design and then our own came and said dad it looks fine but its not really contemporary so i said ok you take over and im handing it all over to you of course im learning from it too how can i use the founder of the whole project take a step back thats the biggest challenge. When you go so far as follow. He and his to the principles of solidarity in agriculture consumers in germany ordered a coffee from farmers in mexico and the organization mediates a whole thing it doesnt make a profit. And offer the nonprofit new funds for the term nonprofit is often misunderstood nonprofit does not mean no pay because the news just kind of goes on. So just as we pay each farmer according to his needs and that is our 1st priority we also ask the sailors and the roasters and the staff here in the cafe. A coffee i was on one and you didnt like it also the basic principle in the thai key cosmos wherever we want to establish the model is that every employee is paid according to his. Or her needs. And that we can all meet on an equal level no matter which continent we live on the great one. The green cafe is concept includes ditching the usual concord 0 plus to coffee to go cups kid they made of biscuit and can be consumed immediately. As a vendor and so if you dont want to eat your coffee mug which is made from delicious biscuit you can of course throw it away and it will decompose much faster than any paper cup or anything else on the market of my. Crew in hamburg a steady advancing their vision of bringing most solidarity to the world of coffee. Thank you. But at the belden trade fair the focus is still on big business. How the south and anjali cole said it with their ideas for a more equitable world trade. And you see john. And explain this would not be wondering grandson coffee white nuns in france.
