About us: We started in 1999 with the focus on conserving endangered wild animals in Daklak province, this practice eventuated to rearing civet kittens. We gained experience throughout the next 10 years growing the civet cats population successfully. The company was officially established on the 5th of January 2009. Our initial harvest of civet coffee beans was of small scale without the processing services.
We started with a few abandoned kittens.
