Neovida supplies coffee cherry superfood products, reduces agricultural waste, and provides an additional revenue stream for small scale coffee farmers in low income countries.

Their coffee cherry tea can be brewed as a beverage, and their coffee cherry powder can be used as an add-in for smoothies, oatmeal, and baking.

Ten percent of profits are reinvested into sustainable development projects in the communities they source from.
