Emmanuel Rusatira is the founder and owner of Baho Coffee, with a long experience in the coffee sector, acquired during 15 years working for a coffee exporting group in Rwanda. In 2016, he decided to embark on his own project with the aim of establishing washing stations in various regions of the country and thus offering a range of unique Profiles reflecting the diversity of Rwanda. Today, Baho Coffee operates 12 Washing stations in the country, guaranteeing the high quality of its products through a controlled process of the cherries.
The name “Baho” comes from a Rwandan expression that symbolizes “having life, being strong and overcoming adversity”, values with which Emmanuel feels deeply identified. After years of effort and sacrifice, he managed to get ahead with his family, and now, as a businessman, he works side by side with coffee growers to empower them and continuously improve the quality of coffee in his country.
The Muganza Washing station is located in the Kizi Rift coffee growing region, in the Nyamagabe district, and was expanded and modernized in 2002 to optimize its operations. Its strategic location makes it a central hub for the local coffee industry, being close to the coffee plantations in the area.
Nyamagabe’s fertile soils and favorable climate provide ideal conditions for the cultivation of high quality Coffee. Located at an altitude of 1,700 meters above sea level, the Muganza station processes cherries from more than 250 coffee farmers, whose coffee trees are grown at altitudes ranging from 1,700 to 2,000 meters above sea level.
