Product Overview

White quinoa is delicious when served either hot or cold and is extremely versatile, as it may be used to substitute almost any other grain or even pasta. Cooked quinoa is excellent in hot casseroles and soups or cold in salads. These tender and crunchy grains can be included as an ingredient in many recipes, from appetizers to main dishes to desserts. Try mixing some oats and honey to cooked quinoa for a healthy start to the day!

Coop Overview

The National Association of Quinoa Farmers (ANAPQUI) was created in 1983 in order to maximize the revenue of local communities who were selling at a loss. The Anapqui cooperative currently regroups 1100 small producers from the south of the Bolivian Altiplano who now benefit from decent living wages, transformation and packaging facilities. The latter, partially funded by the United Nations Development Program, enables them to export directly without having to rely on middlemen. The profit from sales goes towards financing educational and training programs that have led to the introduction of organic farming methods.

Annual FTA 200 audit is performed at this location.
