Who We Are

Lord Coffee is a Yemeni coffee export and import company built on one core principle: uncompromising quality.

From the high-altitude terraces of Yemen to roasteries and cafés around the world, we connect exceptional coffee producers with buyers who care about flavor, traceability, and long-term partnership.

We operate at origin in Yemen, which allows us to work directly with farmers, monitor quality at every stage, and manage the entire export process with precision and professionalism.

Our Story

Lord Coffee was born from a simple question:

How can we show the real potential of Yemeni coffee to the world in a consistent, reliable way?

Yemen is one of the birthplaces of coffee, but for many years, access to Yemeni coffee has been limited, inconsistent, and sometimes risky for buyers. Farmers often work hard under challenging conditions, yet don’t always receive the recognition or prices their coffee deserves.

Seeing this gap, we created Lord Coffee to be a bridge:

  • A bridge between smallholder farmers and international markets
  • A bridge between traditional Yemeni methods and modern quality standards
  • A bridge between heritage and innovation

Today, Lord Coffee works with selected producers and partners across Yemen’s coffee regions, helping them bring their best coffees to roasters, importers, and cafés around the world.

Our Mission

To elevate Yemeni coffee by building a transparent, quality-focused supply chain that benefits farmers and gives buyers confidence, consistency, and exceptional flavor in every lot.

Our Vision

To be recognized globally as a leading name in specialty Yemeni coffee—a trusted partner at origin that sets a new standard for quality, reliability, and integrity in coffee export and import.

Our Core Values

Quality is at the center of every decision we make.

  • We work closely with farmers on harvest and post-harvest practices.
  • We cup and evaluate lots before offering them to clients.
  • We continuously refine our processes to maintain consistency and improve cup scores over time.

We believe that strong relationships are built on trust.

  • Clear communication, honest feedback, and realistic commitments
  • Traceability information for specialty lots (region, altitude, processing, producer/cooperative)
  • Transparent pricing and documentation

We don’t just buy coffee; we build relationships.

  • Supporting better picking, drying, and storing practices
  • Sharing feedback from cupping and from buyers
  • Working towards stable, fair pricing and long-term collaboration

Yemeni coffee has a history that goes back centuries.
We honor that heritage while introducing systems that meet today’s specialty coffee standards—so that Yemen’s traditional methods and unique varieties can shine on the global stage.

We combine local coffee expertise with professional export-import operations.

  • Compliance with export requirements
  • Proper packaging and handling
  • Reliable logistics and communication from order to arrival
