This document summarizes a study on the benefits of Voluntary Sustainability Standards (VSS) for coffee producers in Ethiopia. The study finds that: 1) Certified coffee exports in Ethiopia make up a small share of total exports, around 5-6% in recent years. 2) Coffee producers receive a small price premium of 0.80 US cents/lb for certified red cherries, equivalent to about $7.50-20 more annual income per producer. 3) However, only one-third of the overall 13.7 US cents/lb export premium is transmitted to producers, with the rest going to overhead costs, cooperative investments, and debt repayment.
