The Taramesa cooperative is located in the Sidama region, around 300 km south of Addis Ababa. It is very large, with 2330 members; however, members cultivate only 0.5 hectares on average. In 2014, the cooperative produced three containers of green beans. In 2016, they doubled their output to six containers. The producers receive 12 Ethiopian birrs per pound of cherries; it was only 4 birrs in 2008.
