Resplendor, Brazil
The Resplendor Farm is a producer of specialty coffee, located in the heart of Chapada de Minas region, between the municipalities of Agua Boa and Capelinha. It began in the 70’s, when Mr. Walter Palmeiras and Mr. Alair Campos came from Machado, south of Minas Gerais, to the city of Capelinha. They have brought several other growers to the region, which allowed the development of it, generating income distribution.
They have a strong social responsibility on the farm, with its employees, with the surrounding communities, with the farming practices as well as the environment. The farm has the UTZ certification and the RAINFOREST ALLIANCE, a sustainable agriculture norm, which they really wanted to acquire in order to support them in the challenges they set themselves.
