- Full Description
-
Comercializadora de Café Pitayó is a Colombian company located in El Pital, department of Huila, within the Colombian Massif. The company manages the coffee production cycle and supplies coffee for national and international markets, offering green coffee and roasted coffee in different formats according to buyer requirements.
The company operates with quality and compliance practices supported by certifications and origin recognitions. Café Pitayó holds recognition from the National Federation of Coffee Growers as Colombian coffee, and it is associated with the Huila regional designation of origin and Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) schemes. In addition, the company reports participation in local ecosystem conservation initiatives and the implementation of good agricultural practices in its area of influence, supporting responsible sourcing and farm-level management standards.
Café Pitayó has commercial experience in export markets, with sales in the United States and Spain, and reports registration to operate within the European Union framework through its distribution activity in Spain. The company can supply partners requiring either specialty coffee lots or standard quality coffee, depending on the required profile and intended application.
The company reports current operational capacity of up to approximately 20 containers of green coffee and up to 60,000 pounds of roasted coffee per month, enabling both pilot volumes and recurring orders. Coffee can be supplied under commercial agreements aligned with partner requirements for origin, consistency, documentation, and delivery planning.
Café Pitayó seeks commercial cooperation with European partners interested in establishing long-term sourcing and distribution relationships for Colombian coffee of origin. The objective is to secure stable demand, ensure consistent quality specifications, and expand market access through structured agreements with importers, roasters, distributors, and professional buyers in retail and hospitality. - Advantages and Innovations
-
Café Pitayó’s added value is based on origin, compliance, and supply capability. The company operates in El Pital (Huila), a high-output coffee-producing municipality, and links its offer to recognized origin schemes (Huila designation of origin / PGI framework) and Colombian coffee institutional recognition. This supports commercial positioning for buyers requiring origin-backed products and documentation for premium or differentiated segments.
The company emphasizes implementation of good agricultural practices and participation in local conservation actions, which can support responsible sourcing narratives and procurement policies increasingly demanded in European markets. Its ability to supply both green and roasted coffee enables partners to choose the most suitable input according to their business model (roasting in-market vs. sourcing roasted product).
Operationally, the reported capacity allows scalable supply, enabling partners to start with trial volumes and move toward recurring orders. The company’s experience selling into the US and Spain provides a base level of export readiness, including familiarity with documentation, distribution dynamics, and the expectations of international buyers. - Stage of Development

Partner Sought
- Expected Role of a Partner
-
The company seeks European partners with established market access for coffee products, particularly:
Importers / green coffee buyers able to manage import procedures, quality intake, warehousing, and distribution to roasters and professional clients.
Roasters and coffee brands interested in sourcing Colombian origin coffee directly for roasting, blending, or single-origin lines, with recurring purchasing and quality specification alignment.
Distributors / wholesalers supplying retail, specialty shops, e-commerce, hospitality, and foodservice channels.
Retail and hospitality buyers (specialty stores, cafés, hotels, restaurants) interested in roasted coffee supply or institutional purchasing.
Corporate and bulk buyers requiring consistent volumes for internal consumption, gifting programs, or white-label supply (subject to agreement terms).
The partner’s role may include: (i) defining technical and commercial specifications (quality parameters, lot sizes, packaging, delivery schedule), (ii) coordinating import and compliance requirements in the destination country, (iii) developing sales channels and demand generation in their territory, and (iv) providing periodic feedback on consumer preferences, price points, preferred formats, and regulatory considerations.
Café Pitayó is open to structured cooperation models such as recurring supply agreements, distribution arrangements, and private-label supply where applicable. The intended cooperation is long-term, based on stable volumes, transparent communication, and consistent product specifications. - Type and Size of Partner
