Falcon is a specialty green trader founded in 2008 and headquartered in Lewes, England, sourcing from roughly 550,000 smallholder producers across 26 origins.
They opened an Addis Ababa office in 2018, the same year Ethiopia's traceability reforms took effect, and run a seven-person team there with an in-house cupping lab and a staff agronomist. In 2021 they imported over 6,000 metric tons of Ethiopian coffee, around a fifth of their global volume.
That on-the-ground presence is why a named single-site Ethiopian lot reaches us with its paperwork intact rather than pooled into a regional grade.
