Welcome to Khana Collective
Care for People — Care for the Land — Care for Coffee
Partners of Cooperativa Bio-Arcoíris
Who We Are
Bolivia is one of the most culturally rich and biodiverse countries in South America. And yet…
…rural students complete an average of 4.2 years before dropping out to support their families economically
…3 out of 4 women experience domestic or sexual violence
…it holds the lowest GDP per capita in all of South America
Khana Collective transforms communities through the power of coffee to create upstream socioeconomic empowerment and ecological sustainability in Bolivia, with a focus on Indigenous communities, women, and children. Khana provides pathways for responsible community development through high-quality coffee production and holistic supports for individuals, families, and communities to thrive and for generations to come.
The best part?
You can be part of it.
Partnerships
Whether you are a coffee roaster, an initiative funder, a community organizer, or just a coffee aficionado, Khana Collective wants to know what you’re all about.
We take relationship seriously.
Together with our global neighbors, we actively collaborate to grow the reach and depth of specialty coffee.
We care for people and we care for the land, seriously. But we also have a lot of fun. Because this coffee and these people are all pretty amazing.
Our Values
-
Partnership means that our business relationships go beyond a transaction. Whether with co-op members or international buyers, we believe that real impact happens when there is a level of commitment that doesn’t just follow the market. Bio-Arcoíris welcomes partners to spend time on the land, to get to know the producers and their families, or to share a cup of sultana while we talk about how we can all do better. We want to work with you so that we can elevate each other.
-
Bio-Arcoíris is more than just a social initiative with coffee as a means to an end. A love for, and commitment to, exceptional specialty coffee drives all that we do. The Bio-Arcoíris team is made up of well-respected experts in the field in Bolivia and beyond, and the start of the cooperative has widely expanded the potential for specialty coffee in the regions we work. Bio-Arcoíris is eager to grow and committed to quality at every step.
-
Trust is the signal that genuine relationship and resilient partnership has been built. Bio-Arcoíris does not take lightly the trust that producer partners place in the administrative team to represent them and their products well, while also trusting that there is an authentic commitment to the wellbeing of their communities. We are committed to earning our current and future partners’ trust, including you.
