Karagwe District Cooperative Union Limited

Karagwe District Cooperative Union (KDCU) is an organization of small-scale coffee growers in the Kagera region in the northwest corner of Tanzania, about 200 miles south of the equator. The region has a population of around 408,000 and shares borders with Uganda to the north, Rwanda and Burundi to the west, and Lake Victoria to the east.

The KDCU head office is in Kayanga, about 100 miles west of Bukoba, the regional capital. We unite 135 member AMCOS (Agricultural Marketing Cooperative Societies) to collectively market their coffee at competitive prices, access training, and benefit from shared resources.
