Kamviu Factory is located in Manyatta, Embu County on the South Eastern side of Mt Kenya. Embu County lies on south-eastern side of the mountain. The county borders Tharaka Nithi to the North, Kitui to the east, Machakos to the south, Murang’a to the south west and Kirinyaga to the West. The administrative capital, Embu is also known as Kirimari, meaning top of the hill in the Kiembu dialect. The county was named after the main town Embu, a word that comes from the main community in the area, the Aembu people. Tea and coffee are the community’s main cash crops.
The Kamviu mill is part of the Gakundu Farmers’ Cooperative Society, formed in 1964. The co-op has around 980 active members who farm a total of 290 hectares of coffee. Most of the small holder farms are a hectare or less. Stringent quality control on cherry bought in on the day of picking ensures only ripe cherries enter the processing operation which uses water from the Muriuriu River. Once processed, the parchment is dried on raised beds prior to final processing.
