Who We Are
Welcome to Juan Valdez, where we epitomise the essence of Colombian coffee. With a rich history dating back to 1927, the National Federation of Coffee Growers (FNC) was established as a non-profit organisation representing Colombian coffee growers. The FNC’s primary role is to promote the interests of coffee growers, ensure the industry’s sustainability, and support the social and economic well-being of coffee-growing communities.
Drawing upon our almost century-long experience, Juan Valdez takes pride in preserving the traditions and values of Colombian coffee. We begin our journey amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Colombia, where our expert coffee growers meticulously nurture and handpick the finest beans. With an unwavering commitment to excellence, we embrace time-honoured techniques that ensure each coffee bean is carefully selected, reflecting our dedication to natural superiority.
Our dedication extends beyond exceptional taste. We are passionate about championing sustainability and social responsibility, working hand in hand with our farming communities to empower them with fair practices and create a positive impact on their livelihoods.
In 2002, the Juan Valdez brand was entrusted by the National Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia, representing 540,000 coffee-growing families, with a mission to generate value for Colombian coffee growers. Today, our brand proudly extends its reach to coffee shops and retail stores worldwide, inviting you to experience the unique flavours and aromas of Colombian coffee.
