Our Operations<\/h2>\n \n
\n

LDC is a leading player in coffee in Honduras, and one of the top five coffee exporters in the country. <\/p>\n

Working closely with suppliers, we originate coffee from more than 25,000 producers, and export it to many destinations – mainly the US, Europe, and Asia.<\/p>\n

As a leading coffee merchant with global reach and local expertise, we have become a trusted partner to thousands of Honduran coffee farmers who rely on the crop to make a living.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

Our Assets<\/h2>\n \n

We invest consistently in our processing plants and logistics infrastructure, while working closely with producers around the world. In this way, we reinforce our global presence and respond to the quality demands of our customers.<\/p>\n

Villanueva Plant<\/strong>
Our coffee processing plant in Villanueva is strategically located on Honduras\u2019 main highway, which connects the cities of Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula with Puerto Cort\u00e9s, a port with access to the Atlantic Ocean.<\/p>\n

With an annual processing capacity of 45,000 tons and storage capacity of 4,500 metric tons, this modern facility is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and operated through a SCADA system that enables automated control of industrial processes.<\/p>\n

Lempira Plant<\/strong>
The Lempira drying plant is named after the department of the same name, which accounts for 18% of national coffee production. Specializing in the drying of parchment coffee, it transforms wet or fresh beans into dry parchment, ready for further processing at our Villanueva plant. This service allows us to work even more closely with farmers, strengthening our competitiveness.<\/p>\n

The facility is equipped with two ovens and six dryers, with a capacity of 150 metric tons of wet coffee per cycle. It operates for four to five months each year during the harvest season, producing approximately 5,000 metric tons of dry parchment annually.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n
