Muranga County, in the Central Province of Kenya, is next to Nyeri, a well-known producing area in the north, and Thika in the south, and is about 80 kilometers away from the capital Nairobi in the south. Close to Mount Kenya National Park, the coffee-growing environment also benefits directly from the fertile volcanic soils of the Aberdare Mountains. The natural environment of Mulanca is stable, and coffee cultivation is the main economic activity of most residents. In recent years, the government units affiliated to the county have continued to provide assistance programs such as coffee cultivation technology improvement and awards, which have greatly improved the production quality of the production area.
