The Heroica story is a strong and compelling one; our brand can sit alongside the best beans on a taste and quality basis and has the ethical, social, and community commitments to rise above most.
Our dedication to the sector, to the planet and to lour people starts from our careful consideration of the impact our activities will have on our plantation site. We establish our coffee tree plantations in deforested areas, especially within the upland areas that are threatened by denudation and soil erosion (and abject poverty).
By planting coffee trees in these areas, Heroica contribute to reducing soil erosion and the risks of landslides, increasing soil fertility and improving the soil structure.
We take our role as guardians or protectors of our amazing highland locations, of our trees and of the nature/environment/wild life that surrounds them very seriously indeed; our land governance and the legacy it can bestow is of the highest priority to Heroica.
