Origin Heritage

Kenyan green coffee bridge

SamFresh connects Central Kenya's high-altitude washing stations directly with United Kingdom roasters, eliminating unnecessary brokerage layers to deliver unblended lot-level provenance.

Founding Purpose

Direct origin accountability

Founded by agricultural trade specialists with deep roots across Mount Kenya and the Aberdares, SamFresh was established to replace disconnected commodity trading with transparent origin relationships. We partner with smallholder cooperatives across Nyeri, Kirinyaga, and Embu.

By maintaining local field presence alongside our UK sourcing desk, we monitor parchment drying, physical screen separation, and moisture stabilization long before green coffee arrives at British ports.

Trade Ethics

We preserve single-station lot identity so roasters receive pristine acidity, distinct varietal character, and verified regional provenance.

Fair farmgate pricing and rigorous screen selection ensure long-term stability for farming societies and dependable quality for roastery production schedules.

Operational Standards
