ADI means white.

In Afaan Oromo, ADI speaks of purity, brightness, and trust. It is the standard we hold for every lot we export — transparent origin, honest trade, and coffee that arrives as promised.

Founded by Mr. Bersisa Ensene Gelchu and licensed by the Ethiopian Coffee and Tea Authority, we exist to connect Southern Ethiopia's harvests with specialty roasters worldwide.

Integrity in the name

Transparency is not a slogan for us — it is how we source, process, and ship.

Our Purpose & Philosophy

Three simple pillars

We bridge the gap between traditional farming and modern specialty coffee demands. Our philosophy rests on three simple pillars:

01

Authenticity

Preserving the true, uncompromised profile of single-origin Ethiopian beans.

02

Transparency

Building clear, honest, and direct relationships from the washing station to the port.

03

Sustainability

Ensuring that every transaction supports local farming families and protects the environment for generations to come.

Guji highland coffee landscape

From the Guji highlands

Cool nights, volcanic soils, and altitudes of 1,800–2,200 meters give our cherries the time they need. The result: dense beans with floral fragrance, honeyed sweetness, and the clarity specialty buyers seek.

Our washing stations & farms

Uragaa Gmma'aro Kolla Station

Our Uragaa Gmma'aro Kolla station is situated at altitudes over 2,100 meters above sea level in the Guji highlands. The rich volcanic soil, combined with cool microclimates, fosters slow cherry development resulting in the floral, honeyed notes that specialty roasters crave.

Growth that returns to the land

Fair-market premiums, crop training, and canopy reforestation keep quality rising with the communities who grow it. Export success only matters if it strengthens origin.

From washing channels to container loading in Addis Ababa, every step is built for traceability and lasting partnership.
