Biography of Josh Ziegelbaum:
The Legacy Group is an alternative asset manager that targets profitable investment opportunities with high social and environmental impact in Latin America. Legacy Group generates value by leveraging their team’s local knowledge and international expertise to provide a direct link between our investments in developing markets and the rest of the world. They give their investors the chance to invest directly in projects that not only produce favorable returns, but also have a positive social and environmental impact on all relevant stakeholders. This includes The Green Coffee Company (GCC). Founded in 2017, the Green Coffee Company has become a disruptive force in the Colombian coffee industry. The Company’s innovative business model allows complete control of the coffee supply chain, from cultivation, through processing, to direct trade with end-clients. Since its founding, GCC has grown to become Colombia’s second largest coffee producer with 4,010 acres (1,623 hectares) of landholdings. The Company is by far the most technologically-advanced producer of coffee in Colombia and, we believe, globally. The Green Coffee Company is on-track to become Colombia´s largest coffee producer in 2022.
