The Asociacion de Productores Cafetaleros Juan Marco El Palto (JUMARP) is also known as simply "El Palto." There are 40 women of the current 189 co-op members, with approximately 550 hectares of organic and Fairtrade Certified coffee in production. Like their male counterparts, female members are represented on the El Palto Co-op Board of Directors, whose mission it is to increase production and profitability in specialty coffee to increase each member family’s income.
