Gento Coffee Roasters sources exclusively within Guatemala, buying directly from farmers across the country's growing regions rather than through intermediaries — a structure the company frames as both a fair-trade-pricing commitment and a quality-control measure, since it lets the roastery select lots at the farm level. Small-batch roasting at its Zona 10 shop in Guatemala City is timed to ship shortly after roasting, prioritizing freshness over stockpiling. Beyond the transaction itself, the company runs the Gento Coffee Project, committing 10% of profits to rural community development in the regions it sources from, positioning the sourcing relationship as ongoing investment rather than a one-time purchase. The retail side includes coffee subscriptions, educational workshops, and a tasting bar on-site called the Carajillo Bar, alongside a coffee guide covering recipes and brewing methods for home use. Taken together, the direct-farmer model, the profit-sharing project, and the tasting bar make Gento as much an education and development operation as a retail roastery.
