Ivan Solis is a success story built on the foundation of the coffee producing culture of the growing region, Tarrazu. Today, he is somewhat of a coffee magnate in the prestigious micro-region of Santa Maria de Dota - he seems to know about all the farms and people comprising his beloved, small town. However, Ivan had to struggle and earn his way into the position he is in now from extremely humble beginnings. His hard work ethic, passion, experience, and vision have brought him to create the Santa Fe wet mill with his wife and 3 kids. With his savings, some help from financial institutions, and his family they would go on to start Solis & Cordero micro mill in 2017. It truly is a family business that Ivan enjoys using as a tool to teach his children the meaning of earning a living and continuing the family tradition of coffee production.

Ivan has a deep knowledge of all the farmers and their plantations in the area. In this case, he worked with his good partner, Roger Madrigal Monge, who grows Catuai in El Vapor micro-region in Santa Maria de Dota at an altitude of 1700 masl.
