Rooted in Maasai tradition and Nairobi trade.

Qashawa takes its name from the Maasai word for coffee, honoring the high-altitude volcanic soils of Kenya and the generational stewardship of the land.

Our identity is anchored in the cultural heritage of Kenya. By naming our enterprise Qashawa, we commit to absolute respect for the land, the farmers, and the rich agricultural history of East Africa.

Based in Nairobi, our team works directly with cooperative farms across Kenya's premier growing regions, ensuring scrupulous traceability and uncompromising quality for every lot we export.

Alongside our core green coffee export operations for wholesale buyers and roasters, we are actively developing a bespoke roasted coffee brand designed to highlight the distinct cupping notes of East Africa.

This new initiative brings our export craft full circle, allowing international connoisseurs to experience our finest selections perfectly roasted at origin.
