Summary

Description
English: Trucks at the Awassa coffee warehouse wait to be unloaded. Small scale farmers like Feleke typically group together as a co-operative, and then share the cost of transporting their coffee to the Ethiopia Commodity Exchange Warehouse in Awassa. Before the Ethiopia Commodity Exchange existed, all coffee had to be transported to Addis Ababa for the single market there – a long and expensive journey. Now there are sixteen warehouses around the country, so no farmer is more than 200 kilometres from a warehouse. The Awassa warehouse, in the south of Ethiopia, sees up to 200 trucks a day in peak coffee season.
