Kenyan Premium Coffee Exporters
From the Kenyan Highlands. Crafted with Purpose.
We source, grade and export Kenya's finest coffees. Green for roasters, roasted for drinkers, sample bags to full containers — every lot traceable to the farm and cup-scored before it ships.

What sets us apart
Four commitments behind every bag.
Grower direct
We buy from cooperatives and single estates we've cupped in person. No middle layer between you and the harvest.
Single-origin lots
Every bag is one farm, one crop, one process. We publish altitude, screen, moisture and cup score for each.
Green and roasted
Buy the crop unroasted for your own profile, or take it small-batch roasted and packed within days.
Licensed exporter
Cofystead Harvest Limited is a licensed Kenyan exporter. Compliant documentation, worldwide freight.
The source
A licensed exporter connecting Kenyan farmers to the world.
Cofystead began with a simple belief: Kenyan coffee is one of the great origins, and the story it tells belongs to the growers. We work with cooperatives and single estates across Kenya's coffee highlands to bring traceable, cup-scored lots to roasters and drinkers who care.
