We have locally designed and manufactured Coffee Roasting machines both in electric and
LPG. The machine is controlled by a computer and is designed for ordinary Filipinos. You can see these machines roasting at Cash and Carry or South Supermarket in Alabang. Visit our website at http://www.arengga.com for more info on Roasting and Philippine Coffee.

This is good news to small-scale entrepreneurs like myself. Would like to know therefore, how much it cost including the technical assistance/training for the users. I have a small coffeeshop in Los Banos and this would be an excellent add-on to the business.

Many thanks and looking forward to hear from you soonest.

Hi,

I am part of a company that supplies espresso machines to major coffee shops and restaurants in the Philippines. I really have this desire to have my own business in the future, supplying roasted coffee blends to my current customers.

However, it may take a lot of investment to put up a roasting facility, which i also know may not be wise for a start up small-scale business.

My question is: would you know of a very reliable roasting company that i can deal with who can customize my own coffee brand?

thank you.

Hi,
I would like to find out if it is possible to grow coffee in the low lying area of Luzon. I am about 2km from the ocean and about 15km from the mountain.
I have seen coffee plantations in south amerika and seen all coffee growere are south of here. I am in Ilocos Sur.
If it is possible what would I need to watch and how long until you have your first yield/harvest? I also was interested if it is possible on getting myself a small coffee roaster…..Any hlep and input would be greatly appreceated as it will be a family project for Ponce and Tabucou.
We may also be able to grow in the mountans of Cagayan as this is the home of the Ponce family. But we want to start in Ilocos Sur.
Thank you
Gary

This is a very good project/idea!

My family have been in coffee farming for a long time and I have making plans to roast some of the harvest to increase profits. Please keep this up and always keep in mind the financial capacity of a small coffee grower in making the final pricing.

Keep up the good work!
