Here is a simple look at why the method used by Impexcor Ltd
Busanze is excellent for making high-quality Anaerobic
coffee:
Tree Age (10–15 years): Trees at this age are strong. They
make sweeter coffee cherries, which gives the coffee a better
taste.
Bringing the cherries to the station before 3:00 PM to get time of
selection of cherries and Using bags that let air move keeps the
cherries fresh until they are processed. Taking out bad or green
cherries by hand means only the best, sweetest cherries are
used.
Greenport Bags: These special airtight bags are great because they
completely block out oxygen. This starts the anaerobic process
perfectly.
A Splash of Water (¼ Liter): This small amount of water
creates a little moisture. It helps the sugars start changing into
flavor right away without washing them away and keeping the bags
closed for 3 days in a warm, covered place
Drying Strategy: Spreading them out thin at first stops mould.
Gathering them closer later protects them from drying out too
fast.
30 Days of Drying: Taking a full month to dry ensures the coffee
dries evenly from the inside out. This helps the coffee stay fresh
in storage for a longer time.

About the Farm
The Story of Alexis Munyempuhwe
The lead farmer representing the others is named Alexis
Munyempuhwe. He is 26 years old and lives in Kabavomo Village,
Nteko Cell, Busanze Sector, Nyaruguru District, in the Southern
Province of Rwanda.
Alexis grew up loving coffee. When he was just 16 years old, he
started growing his own coffee while still going to school. He
began loving coffee because he saw his neighbors making good money
every harvest season.
Today, Alexis owns 650 coffee trees at different ages. He entered
the coffee competition last year but did not win. However, if he
wins this time, it will give him the energy to grow his farm and
plant more coffee. It will also inspire other farmers to learn from
him.
Alexis is still very young. Impexcor Ltd focuses heavily on
empowering young people like him because they are the future of
coffee farming. His coffee trees produce a great harvest every year
because he takes excellent care of them. He uses mulch, organic
animal manure, and factory fertilizers to keep his farm healthy. In
addition, Alexis has been able to improve his life through coffee
farming. He now owns his own motorcycle, which he bought using
money from coffee farming. In 2025, he harvested more than 1,300 kg
of coffee and saved the money he earned at SACCO. This year, he
harvested nearly 1,500 kg. By adding this income to his savings, he
was able to buy his own motorcycle without taking a loan.
We are very happy and proud of the progress Alexis continues to
make. We will continue to support and stay close to him as he works
to improve his life through coffee farming.
