Elver Coronel owns a small 2ha farm in La Flor del Norte village in the Huabal district of Cajamarca. Elver’s farm is planted with Caturra and Bourbon, both high quality varieties which require a great deal of care and attention. Aside from his farm, Elver owns a wet/dry processing station where he purchases cherry from neighbours and then processes it. Elver employs workers to carry out all of the work on his farm, since he is focused on processing and purchasing cherry. Elver is from La Flor and has lived there for most of his life, but some years ago decided to move to Pucallpa, a city in the Amazon jungle area of Peru, where he started producing and trading ginger.
Upon returning home he wanted to get stuck into coffee, but had very little production from the family farm, so decided to start buying coffee in wet parchment and processing it himself. This was possible with the money he had earned from growing ginger. Since then he has started to buy up relatively large amounts of cherry from neighbours, paying good prices for well selected cherry.
