Athimba Coffee Limited was founded in 1982 by Mr. Michael Raphael with a mission to transform Kenya’s coffee industry and empower local farmers. Starting as a small venture, the company quickly built strong partnerships with farmer cooperative unions, providing training, resources, and fair trade opportunities to smallholder farmers.

In the 1990s, Athimba Coffee established model farms to demonstrate best practices in coffee cultivation, becoming a beacon of innovation and education for local communities. By the 2000s, the company expanded into value addition, enhancing Kenyan coffee through roasting, branding, and packaging while creating jobs and boosting global recognition.

Today, Athimba Coffee is a leader in the industry, connecting Kenya’s finest coffee to the world. With over 40 years of experience, the company remains committed to sustainability, quality, and empowering farmers, ensuring the rich heritage of Kenyan coffee thrives globally.
