A Vision for Change: Empowering Women in the Coffee Industry
My name is Eva Muthuuri, and I am the founder of Eva’s Coffee Limited. As a coffee exporter and gender expert, I have dedicated my career to transforming the coffee industry through the lens of women’s empowerment. The journey to create Eva’s Coffee has been one driven by passion, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to bridging the gap between women coffee producers and international markets.
Eva’s Coffee was born out of a desire to reduce the miles, both literal and figurative, that separate women coffee producers from the global marketplace. The brand celebrates and seeks to increase women’s engagement in every stage of the coffee value chain. By doing so, we aim to unlock the immense potential of women in the coffee industry and create opportunities for economic independence and growth.
The concept of women’s economic empowerment is at the core of Eva’s Coffee. We believe that when women succeed, entire communities thrive. By empowering women farmers, we are not only enhancing their livelihoods but also fostering a ripple effect that benefits families, communities, and the broader economy. Our initiatives focus on providing women with access to resources, training, and fair wages, ensuring they have the tools and opportunities to succeed.
Eva’s Coffee Limited is registered and licensed by The Coffee Directorate to import, export, roast, and pack Kenya Coffee. Our operations adhere to the highest standards of quality and ethical practices, ensuring that every cup of Eva’s Coffee you enjoy is a testament to the exceptional skill and dedication of our women farmers. Our brand is not just about coffee; it is about empowerment, sustainability, and creating a brighter future for women in the coffee industry.
Today, Eva’s Coffee proudly collaborates with close to 12,000 women farmers across the coffee sector. These women are the heart and soul of our brand. Their dedication, hard work, and expertise are the foundation upon which Eva’s Coffee is built. We work tirelessly to ensure that their voices are heard, their efforts are rewarded, and their potential is fully realized.
I invite you to join us on this incredible journey. By choosing Eva’s Coffee, you are not only enjoying the rich, flavorful coffee that Kenya is renowned for but also supporting a movement dedicated to empowering women. Together, we can make a difference and create a future where women in the coffee industry are celebrated, valued, and empowered.
