Copy of About Us

Our Origins

       Serendipity, happenstance and providence brought together a group of individuals who have a passion for coffee and are equally passionate about the planet we inhabit.

From this collective of likeminded individuals, Booma Coffee was created as a socially conscious company with the following set of principles.

• Empathy towards all the participants and stakeholders we interact with
• To increase awareness in the fact that every activity we undertake has an impact, whether good or bad, and taking proper steps to fix it.
• We all want the same thing, healthy planet, sustainable economy and positive outcomes, we just need to be aware.
• Profit with a purpose?

Coffee has been in our DNA for generations dating back to the early 50’ with our grandfather who started cultivating coffee and selling Ethiopian Coffee to world markets and even further back with our great grandparents, who, were given a grant of land by Emperor Menelik to plant the first coffee trees in Illubabor.

With this legacy we decided to honor their path by creating and partnering with Mills and farms in Ethiopia to bring the best coffees Ethiopia has to offer. This vertical model and partnerships, allows us to better control the  coffee quality and our ability to have meaningful impact in the communities we interact with.

Our Purpose

 Besides curating, roasting and creating master blends for your enjoyment our other goal has always been to create a community who value and expect transparency, sustainability and ethical practices.  By creating an awareness through a community centric approach, we can be empowered to make the right choices as stakeholders. 

Our Approach

WHAT WE DO

We build long-term transparent, trustworthy, and equitable relationships with farmer producers at Origin. We develop holistic approaches throughout the supply chain that begin at the farm level and terminate with the consumer. As the stewards of this planet, we are all vested in the sustainability of the coffee supply chain ecosystem. Through awareness and ecological mitigation strategies, we plan to “do no harm”. 

WHAT WE CARE ABOUT

We care about bringing you the finest coffees from our partners and our own mills, we care about contributing to a decent living for all our partner farm producers, we care in rejuvenating the soil and sustaining the ecosystem for future generations, we care in expanding the circle from the farmer/producer all the way to the coffee end consumer, if we are all part of a whole we will make good choices and be a part of meaningful and impactful change.

We care about providing full documentation of all our partnerships and relationships. Most of all we would like to have fun and a sense of accomplishment in what we do. Otherwise, why do it at all?

WHY WE DO IT

Our whole goal since our inception has always been to make a difference.
