The federal government launches soluble Wellbeing Coffee

A new federal bet transforms the morning of millions of Mexicans, connecting the field with the table at an unprecedented price.

A Revolutionary Dawn in the Mexican Mug

In a move that promises to shake the foundations of the market and redefine a nation’s breakfast, the Federal Government has unveiled, with the pomp of a state secret finally revealed, its most powerful weapon: the 100 percent soluble Wellness Coffee. This is not a simple product; It is an emblem, a declaration of intent that resonates with the echo of the thousands of small producers who have seen how their sweat and dedication are transformed into hope. María Luisa Albores González, the General Director of Mexican Food Safety, became the herald of this new era, announcing not only the elixir itself, but the future construction of a plant dedicated exclusively to its production, a modern temple where grain will become gold for the communities.

With the precision of a general deploying his final strategy, the official broke down the prices of the different presentations, each bottle a promise of accessibility. The 50 gram one, a pocket talisman at 35 pesos; the 90 grams, a medium option for 65 pesos; and the giant of 205 grams, a strength of aroma and flavor for 110 pesos. Each figure uttered was a direct blow to inflation, an oath that well-being is not a luxury, but a right.

The Heartbeat of the Mountain in Every Grain

But the true epic is not written on the shelves of the Wellness Stores, but in the highlands and fertile slopes of Mexico. The history of this coffee is the story of 6,646 anonymous heroes, small producers of Oaxaca, Puebla, Veracruz and, in a stellar way, of the wild and noble Guerrero. From this last entity, from its mountainous heart, an astonishing 55 percent of the collected grain springs. It is the hands of the original peoples—Mixes, Mixtecs, Nahuas, Otomíes—that cultivate, harvest and deliver the fruit of their land, weaving a network of social investment that already reaches the monumental figure of 59.4 million pesos for 913.56 tons of coffee.

And in this human drama, a powerful narrative twist: the face of the production is mostly female. 44% of direct producers are women, warriors of the land who challenge stereotypes. In the dramatic and deep Montaña de Guerrero, the balance tips even more, with six out of ten producers being companions, women who stand as pillars of their communities and of this national project. They are the true architects of this dream, demonstrating that equity and fair price are the foundations of a true transformation.

The coverage of this epic program extends like a network of light over 72 municipalities, covering 465 remote localities. Fourteen collection centers and eight mobile points are the bastions from which this revolution of taste spreads, ensuring that not even the most remote community is left out of this new pact between the countryside and the consumer. Guerrero, once again, is crowned as the epicenter of this feat, with the region of La Montaña and Costa Grande leading a collection that feeds the soul of the country.

This Soluble Wellness Coffee is more than a drink; It is a symbol of resistance, a pact of honor with those who work the land and a promise of quality for those who inhabit it. Each cup is an act of justice, a sip of food sovereignty and a tribute to collective effort. The message is clear and resonant: Mexico’s morning has changed forever.

Among them, the construction of 10 new schools of the “Margarita Maza” National High School, house-to-house visits, more jobs through Young People Building the Future and a greater presence of the National Guard.

“We are going to build together, because this is a job for everyone, for families to care for their children, for the state government and for the federal government,” the president highlighted.

The visit occurred after the arrest of the mayor of Cuautla. Sheinbaum instructed strengthening the federal presence with attention to the causes, as part of the National Security Strategy. Next week they will begin house-to-house tours and outreach to merchants. He promised to return in three months to monitor progress.

Housing for Wellbeing

At the event, 128 Infonavit homes and 207 Insus deeds were also delivered. Sheinbaum recalled the four components of the program: build 1.8 million new houses for people with incomes of one to two minimum wages; deliver the same number of credits for improvement; grant a million deeds; and restructure unpayable loans for 5 million families.

Octavio Romero Oropeza, director of Infonavit, reported that of the goal of 1.2 million homes, there are already 440 approved complexes that total 514 thousand houses (43% progress). In Morelos, the goal is 13 thousand new homes with an investment of 8,150 million pesos.

Edna Elena Vega Rangel, head of Sedatu, explained that 128 homes and 207 deeds were delivered. Governor Margarita González Saravia thanked the expansion of the state goal to 24 thousand houses in the six-year term, in addition to other works such as modernization of the countryside, a Convention Center in Cuernavaca and the “Circuito Tierra y Libertad” highway program.

The beneficiary Kendra Ramírez Orozco expressed her gratitude for access to housing. Sheinbaum reiterated his commitment to return in three months to follow up.

They demand justice for a journalist in Oaxaca; colleague receives threats

Threats against journalist in Oaxaca after the murder of Alejandro Leyva; protest in the Guelaguetza.

Threats against correspondent

After the murder of Francisco Alejandro Leyva Aguilar, Proceso‘s correspondent in Oaxaca, Pedro Matías Arrazola, was intimidated through social networks. They warned him that he would be next.

Organizations such as Reporters Without Borders and the UN demanded that the threats be investigated and security guarantees granted. The Oaxaca Prosecutor’s Office deployed two agents to protect him, and the state police carry out patrols near his home.

“I didn’t find out until they told me about Reporters Without Borders and then the UN, but I didn’t pay much attention to it (…). Better to keep a low profile,” declared Matías.

The journalist explained that he avoided spreading the threats so as not to divert attention from Leyva’s case. However, colleagues advised him not to minimize the risk, in a context of growing attacks against the press.

Two years ago, individuals threw Molotov cocktails with nails at his home, without causing any injuries. That attack forced him to leave the country for six months. Sixteen years earlier he was kidnapped and tortured.

“I am not afraid. I am a believer. I have a mission in this life and it will be until God decides,” he stated.

Matías filed a complaint for threats with the State Prosecutor’s Office. Its incorporation into the federal protection mechanism began.

“If we remain silent, they will have achieved their purpose. In recognition of Alejandro Leyva, I will continue along the same critical line,” he said.

Protest in Guelaguetza

Relatives and friends of Alejandro Leyva protested during the Guelaguetza delegation parade. With tarps, banners on the roof of a house and dressed in black, they demanded justice.

“We are Alejandro’s family and we ask for justice for my uncle. We know the situation in the country. It is not just Oaxaca, it is the entire country. Please join our cause,” expressed the protesters.

Sheinbaum announces border reopening for Mexican cattle

Gradual reopening of the US border to Mexican cattle at the end of August.

New stage for national livestock farming

President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed that the United States border will gradually reopen at the end of August for the export of Mexican livestock. The measure represents economic relief for the country and for thousands of families dedicated to livestock farming.

Both nations suffered losses during the shutdown, caused by the presence of the screwworm. Sheinbaum acknowledged that the coordinated work between governments and producers for more than a year made it possible to contain the pest.

“You know that we have been working on the issue, both with all the livestock organizations and with the governors, to contain the screwworm,” said the president from Cuautla, Morelos.

As part of the strategy, a plant to produce sterile flies is already operating in Chiapas. In addition, Cofepris is analyzing a new strain that would make the process more efficient.

Sheinbaum explained that the effort is carried out in conjunction with the governments of Mexico, the United States and Panama. This articulation created the conditions for the US authority to authorize the opening of the border.
