Sucafina’s purpose is to create opportunities to improve lives. That’s why we are delighted to share a project implemented by our instant coffee team to expand a school in Rwanda’s Eastern Province. By addressing issues like classroom overcrowding, the initiative is enhancing the quality of education for students at the school.

Sucafina is pleased to announce that it has successfully secured a two-year extension on its flagship Sustainability-Linked Senior Secured Borrowing Base Facility. Commitments for the US $700 million Facility were received from a globally diverse group of European, American, and Asian banks.

Sucafina is delighted to announce that it has joined the Swiss Sustainable Coffee Platform (SSCP), a multi-stakeholder initiative launched this week with the aim of promoting sustainability in the global coffee value chain.  

At Sucafina, our long-term goal is to help farmers develop coffee growing models that have a positive impact on farmer livelihood, the environment and communities. Agroforestry – intercropping trees into fields of cash and food crops – is a key component of creating regenerative agriculture coffee growing systems.
