Burambi’s meaning comes from the historical bean variety that once grew in the Maranvya region. This 'big beans', spoken in local dialect Kirundi, was called Ibirambi. Ibirambi beans grow plentiful in the hills of the Maranvya area, so this hill was called Burambi. This washing station is managed today by Protais Habonimana and is surrounded by 6 hills, with 1184 farmers who produce around 330 tons of exportable green coffee per harvest. Burambi washing station is located 86 km south of the capital Bujumbura.
