Nyabumera washing station is in the Mahembe sector of Nyamasheke District. It is strategically located at the entrance of the valley. Acquired by a new owner, Providence, in 2023, the station had faced neglect over the previous two years. Providence has taken proactive steps to revitalise the space, clean up certain areas, and plan to increase the number of drying beds and build a larger storage facility on-site. The station operates with a team of 5 permanent staff, including 2 women, and employs 80 to 100 seasonal workers during peak harvest times, with 70% of the workforce being women. In 2023, the annual production volume is projected to reach 210 metric tons, with ambitious targets of 700 metric tons and a long-term potential of 1000 metric tons. The isolated location and the extensive network of farmers residing in the surrounding hills contribute to this vast potential. As a testament to future growth, Nyabumera has 100,000 seedlings ready for distribution in 2023 to support local farmers, showcasing a commitment to sustainable and thriving coffee farming in the region.
