Producer Info
Jairo Arcila is a third-generation coffee grower from Quindío,
Colombia. He is married to Luz Helena Salazar and they have
two children together, Carlos and Felipe Arcila, who are the
co-founders of Cofinet. Jairo’s first job was at Colombia’s
second-largest exporter, working as their Mill Manager for over
40 years until his retirement in 2019.
Jairo bought his first coffee farm, Finca La Esmeralda, in 1987
and this is where he planted his first Caturra lot. He was
fortunate enough to earn money by producing coffee on his farm
in addition to working full time. Using his savings, Jairo slowly
managed to purchase five additional farms. After Esmeralda
came Villarazo, Mazatlan, Santa Monica, Maracay and then
Buenos Aires. Now, during the harvest period, Jairo can provide
jobs to the locals generating an economic impact in the
community.
He received great insight and expertise from his sons’ in the
picking, sorting, and processing of his coffees. This insight has
empowered Jairo and given him the tools needed to showcase
fantastic coffees with amazing profiles from the region.
