Kenyan washing stations are called factories, and the Kii factory is owned and operated by the Rungeto Farmers Cooperative Society. It serves around 1200 members in the area that has been cultivating coffee since the 1950’s. On average the farmers own about a third of a hectare with about 400 coffee trees each, and they cultivate a mix of the arabica varieties SL28, SL34, Batian and Ruiru 11. The Rungeto cooperative owns and operates three factories - Kii, Karimikui, and Kiangoi, and is managed by an elected board of seven members. The member farmers deliver their cherries as soon as they are picked, making each lot a mix of what was delivered that day. The coffee is sorted again before being depulped and washed fermented overnight with fresh river water before drying in the sun.
