The coffee is bought following the guidelines of the bags of London for Robust and those of New York for the Arábicas. The purchase options are by 17.25 lots of tms in New York and 5 tms in London. But the regular procedure of the torrefactora industry is to negotiate the purchase through the offers of the cooperatives or intermediaries who we mentioned previously.

- The determined quality of the product.
