Dear Colleagues and Friends, 

We are delighted to share some exciting news regarding the growth and evolution of our organization. 

As of May 1st, 2024, Hamburg Coffee Company is embarking on a significant journey with the launch and inauguration of our first wholly owned and operated origin operation in Brazil— Brasil Coffee Company (Brascof). 

Brascof represents a significant step forward in our long-term goals of driving sustainability and innovation within the coffee industry. With a comprehensive team spanning across Commercial, Quality & Processing, Logistics, and Sustainability Departments, and a network of over two thousand farmers across the Arabica and Conilon growing-regions,  Brascof is positioned to offer a diverse range of green coffee products while championing ethically and environmentally conscious supply chains.

Leading the team at Brascof will be Artur Ornelas as our Country Manager. Artur brings over 10 years of world-class experience in the coffee trade in Brazil on both Arabica and Conilon. Additionally, his background in developing sustainable supply chains and his dedication to fostering partnerships with producers and cooperatives across Brazil make him an ideal fit for this pivotal role. 

Please join us in extending our warmest wishes to Artur and the entire Brascof team as they embark on this exciting journey and join their sister companies HACOFCO, AMCOF, and ICT in providing top-tier services and products to our partners and customers worldwide.
