In southern Mexico, Root Capital is enhancing economic opportunities for women in small-scale coffee farming. By providing over $2 million in loans and targeted advisory services to coffee cooperatives in Chiapas, we've enabled women to take on more active roles in coffee management and sales. “Women are heavily involved in coffee harvesting and post-harvesting activities, contributing significant unpaid labor. By providing financing and advisory services, Root Capital helps reduce their time burdens and increases their participation in income-generating activities,” says Susana Rodríguez Pérez, a cooperative member of Cooperative Maya Ixil in Chiapas. You can help advance gender equity and support sustainable coffee value chains this International Coffee Day.
