We are a couple of fairly altruistic contrarians trying to make a difference... 

We are a passionate team headed by two experienced leaders: A food scientist who has years of coffee roasting experience and prior work in agricultural development in rural Africa, and a former military officer with a business education and interest in supply chain finance.

Together we have grown three successful coffee brands anchored in grocery. Today we are forging and scaling a new brand: Direct Access. This brand is here to disrupt the current coffee-sourcing model by building one that’s sustainable for specialty coffee farmers.

We roast coffee we like to drink. And we think you will like it, too. If you don't like it, it probably means you hate cute, cuddly, orphaned kittens also... shame on you!
