Cereza Coffee is a different kind of coffee company—a rather unusual one. We are 100% independent, with no affiliation or connection to large legacy trade houses. The majority of our operation and team is based in coffee-producing countries, with deep cultural and personal ties to coffee production. By having full-time team members both in the U.S. and at origin, we are able to be locally ingrained at both ends of the supply chain. We build relationships with our producing and roasting partners from the ground up.
We source and develop coffee in innovative ways. Our approach to sourcing involves partnering with carefully selected coffee farmers and supporting them and their families as they strive to reach their full potential. We are deeply committed to mutual growth and improvement, taking this responsibility seriously by working closely with our producing partners before, during, and after the harvest. This hands-on involvement ensures they have the resources needed to succeed, complemented by ongoing educational support. Our successful sourcing projects not only elevate the quality of coffee but also enhance farmers’ quality of life and income, fostering meaningful connections throughout the supply chain.
Additionally, we have launched innovative processing projects at origin, furthering our research and development initiatives. By processing coffee ourselves, we continue to learn alongside our producing partners, applying and synthesizing techniques, lessons, and theories from various origins. We are proud to be contributing positively to the future of coffee.
