A FAMILY TRADITION
Our founder, Don Guillermo Peters Schuster, is documented in Costa Rican history as "The Father of Coffee" and began his career in coffee in the late 1800s. We are the 4th generation in this historic Costa Rican gourmet coffee family and continue the tradition of excellence and quality for which our family owned and managed plantation has been recognized for over 100 years.
THE KAFFETICO MISSION
"Conservation Through Coffee." ©
We continuously strive to provide the highest quality gourmet coffee products available while benefiting future generations of animals, people, and the environment!
A percentage of KaffeTico proceeds support the endangered or threatened species adorning our product brands.
NO MINIMUMS & NO UPFRONT EXPENSE
Fundraising group participants secure presale orders of our gourmet estate & specialty coffees with our convenient & easy-to-use order forms. Order forms are customized with the name and logo of your organization.
Participants are asked to approach family, friends, neighbors and coworkers. Additionally, an introductory letter can be sent home with members, explaining the program and proposed use of your group funds.
The Fundraising Coordinator collects forms and payments from participants and an order is placed with KaffeTico by fax or email.
Your order is roasted and delivered to the fundraising group coordinator by KaffeTico 15 to 30 days from the date of purchase. Bulk coffee shipments are then sorted and distributed by the members to their respective customers.
