Farmer Details
When Luiz Paulo’s grandfather died, his family inherited his coffee farms. Luiz Paulo’s parents decided to honor and
recognize the career and trajectory of this great grower, by giving their son a coffee farm called Sr. Niquinho, which was
actually his grandfather’s nickname.
When asked about the future, Luiz Paulo says: “For me producing a sustainable coffee and having sustainability in
mind is a vital part for any coffee grower, both nowadays and in the future. We must have the responsibility of producing
with quality and on a consistent basis, and protecting the environment that surrounds us, as well as the society that we
live in. By doing our work with these rules in mind, we will be able to offer exactly what our very demanding clients
worldwide desire from a coffee supplier.”
