*About São Miguel
From his humble beginnings selling green coffee beans door-to-door in the small city of São Miguel in 1959, João Alves de Lima planted the seed, which would later blossom into Santa Clara Coffee. In 1985, Mr. João Lima´s three children, Pedro, Paulo and Vicente, joined the administration and operation of the company, initiating transformation of a familiar business into a highly structured company, characterized by professional administration and strong, sustainable growth. The family’s vigorous work ethic and unrelenting resolve have persevered through generations and remain at the core of the company’s ethos today.
