Founded in 2018, the company is dedicated to revolutionising coffee production through sustainable farming practices, cutting-edge technology, and a strong commitment to social and environmental responsibility.

To reduce CO2 emissions, Mount Sunzu has installed solar panels with a 92 kW energy capacity. 600 of Mount Sunzu’s 780 hectare plot of land is reserved to protect the native Miombo forest and Dambo wetlands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"story-section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pagebuilder-column-group\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pagebuilder-column-line\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pagebuilder-column f-left\"\u003e\n\u003cfigure\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pagebuilder-column f-right\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"story-section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pagebuilder-column-group\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pagebuilder-column-line\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pagebuilder-column f-left\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHistory of Coffee in Zambia\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoffee was first planted in Zambia in 1978, on what is now Olam’s Ngoli Estate. Overseen by a very energetic, active and supportive ZCGA (Zambia Coffee Growers’ Association), there was a rapid expansion in planting in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s with national production reaching just short of 7,000mt. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen the global coffee price crisis of 1998 to 2004 hit, and hard. Most of the estates required significant investment and infrastructure, including the installation of irrigation systems which could not be made. Low prices forced most estates to switch to other crops. However, since Olam acquired the northern estates in 2012, significant investment has led to a rejuvenation of the Zambian coffee sector. The coffee estate company NCCL is now the largest coffee producer in the country and the largest single employer in Zambia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 1.4em;\"\u003eRoast\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLight\/Medium\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrew\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFilter \u0026amp; Espresso\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"Django Coffee Co.","offers":[{"title":"250g \/ Wholebean","offer_id":56421524832635,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Espresso","offer_id":56421524865403,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ V60","offer_id":56421524898171,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Aeropress","offer_id":56421524930939,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Chemex","offer_id":56421524963707,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Cafetiere","offer_id":56421524996475,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Wholebean","offer_id":56421525029243,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Espresso","offer_id":56421525062011,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ V60","offer_id":56421525094779,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Aeropress","offer_id":56421525127547,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Chemex","offer_id":56421525160315,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Cafetiere","offer_id":56421525193083,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1KG \/ Wholebean","offer_id":56421525225851,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1KG \/ Espresso","offer_id":56421525258619,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1KG \/ V60","offer_id":56421525291387,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1KG \/ Aeropress","offer_id":56421525324155,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1KG \/ Chemex","offer_id":56421525356923,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1KG \/ Cafetiere","offer_id":56421525389691,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1065\/2736\/files\/sunzxuthumb.jpg?v=1789632120","url":"https:\/\/www.djangocoffeeco.com\/products\/zambia-starmaya","provider":"Django Coffee Co.
