Mission
We are committed to promoting equitable-cooperative and sustainable practices in regard to international agriculture in which the farming communities and final consumers share in all of the benefits the world-changing coffee industry has to offer. We know that High Quality standards for coffee can make a difference for the long term.
Vision
Those informed of the international coffee trade and its practices are typically frustrated, (to say the least) with the lack of equity in regard to the quality of life experienced by the those who have dedicated their lives to growing coffee. Coffee farmers live a tough life. Not only is coffee a tedious, attention-needing tree to grow, but the farmers often get paid very little for their work. This has left many of them, including those in Kenya with little to no capital to be used for reinvesting, or for that matter, even maintaining competitive levels of production. By creating and developing relationships with farmers, we want to do our part to see increase in production, thereby increasing the collective standard of living for those who need it most, and providing a product that is competitive in the world market. We work with quality people to source quality coffees.
Action
Our coffee beans hit the national market in 2014 and through building relationships, and working with our friends and partners, the coffees spread quickly. Our coffees have comfortably commanded the top average of 90+ SCAA - CQI Cupping Scores in the Coffee Review, and were even presented and won the Good Foods Award. As we grow and our journey continues, we welcome you to join us, to promote higher production and consumption trends in the coffee industry. We are focusing to utilize our expertise and knowledge of coffee to source and provide high quality green coffee beans from many different producing countries of origin around the world.

Jackson puts it mildly when he says, “Coffee is my hobby and my passion.” His wealth of knowledge and experience in regard to the quality of coffee is down-right masterful. Jackson got his start in the coffee industry, while in his native country, Kenya, where he worked his way up to holding the title of Quality Controller for one of the world's best coffee mills, located in Ruiru, Kenya. In addition, he was a pioneer in the foundation of the East African Fine Coffees Association (EAFCA), now (AFCA), where he volunteered three years of service as an active Coffee Judge in the Organization Cup of Excellence. Today, AFCA is an organization serving all of the African coffee producing countries. After moving to the United States, Jackson was hired into several roles in his tenures, as Director of Quality Control, Roasting and Green Bean Purchasing Manager. Since 2012, he has been working to establish Elephant Coffee Importers as an industry leader and prominent source of high quality coffee. His passion for helping farming communities is genuine and highly contagious.
