Finca la Puebla is situated in the northeastern part of the state of Puebla (Municipality of Xicotepec de Juárez) at an altitude of 600 meters above sea level on the Santa Rita plateau. Located at 20 degrees 22′ 50” latitude north, which represents the northern upper limit for coffee growing and thus has very unique regional climatic conditions.
The state of Puebla is the 4th biggest coffee producing state of Mexico (after Chiapas, Veracruz and Oaxaca).
The farm is located about 90 km west of the Gulf of Mexico and 225 kms north east of Mexico City.
The origins of Finca la Puebla date back to the early 1980’s, when former owner of the farm acquired the first lots of pasture land and gradually planted Arabica coffee on approx. 950 hectares.
In 1990 Neumann Kaffee Gruppe became shareholder of this new farm before taking over the entire operation in 1995.
Finca la Puebla was the first farming operation of Neumann Kaffee Gruppe, later on followed by Fazenda da Lagoa in Brazil and Kaweri Coffee Plantation in Uganda as well as some Farm Management activities in East Africa.
In the meantime Finca la Puebla has extended the coffee area to 1363ha hectares on the total farm area of 1790ha.
