Coffee Emporium

Choosing to spend your money at Coffee Emporium means you are choosing to support a small, independent, locally owned business. It means that you are supporting dozens of smallholder farmers from around the world, who we personally know.

We invest in relationships from seed to cup. We buy coffee directly from farmers to ensure that they receive top dollar for their hard work and quality coffee. We have developed friendships over the years with our farmers and take pride in working with such driven, hardworking people. We prioritize working with women in the coffee industry because of their willingness to provide economic and educational opportunities to enrich and advance their communities. Inspired by the late Angèle Ciza, the Kalico owner in Burundi, says, "If you want to develop Burundi, you develop the women."

Together, we are helping to ensure those farmers see a sustainable future in growing specialty coffee, which benefits us all.

At Coffee Emporium we have a direct trade sourcing strategy. This means that we want to know the coffee farmers that we purchase from and we want to pay a price that rewards them for the quality of their coffee. Over the years we have built relationships with many of our coffee farmers.
