WHY KAFFAGO

A complete coffee system—built from the origin outward.

ORIGIN

KaffaGo is rooted in Ethiopia, recognized as the birthplace of Arabica coffee.

SYSTEM

Machines, grinders, precision tools and coffee designed to work as one portable ritual.

EXPERTISE

Built by a founder whose work spans farms, processing, quality evaluation and global specialty-coffee markets. Origin and METAD

FROM ORIGIN TO ANYWHERE

The journey begins long before the brew button.

Through METAD, our vertically integrated specialty-coffee company at origin, we work across farming, smallholder relationships, processing, quality evaluation and export. That experience shapes how KaffaGo selects coffee, teaches brewing and designs the complete journey around the cup.

COMMUNITY IMPACT

Coffee should create value where it begins.

METAD’s work extends beyond coffee. Over the years, it has invested in education, healthcare, roads, seedlings and community development in the regions where coffee is grown. KaffaGo carries that responsibility forward by building a brand that respects origin and is designed to create lasting value - not simply borrow a story.

15,000+ Smallholder relationships
120,000+ Household members connected
20,000 ha Farmland under management
2.5 million+ Seedlings distributed
BUILT BY A COFFEE PRODUCER

Not a gadget company looking for a coffee story.

Aman Adinew created KaffaGo after decades of leadership across global business and Ethiopian coffee. His idea was simple: people should not have to choose between convenience, mobility and a meaningful cup. KaffaGo connects modern portable brewing with the origin, knowledge and human relationships behind exceptional Ethiopian coffee.

Founder & Chief Executive Officer

KaffaGo is led by Aman Adinew, a visionary coffee entrepreneur who has dedicated his career to building a sustainable, world-class gateway for Ethiopian coffee heritage.

In 2011, Aman founded METAD, a premier vertically integrated coffee enterprise. METAD manages family farms in the Oromia and Southern regions, oversees an out-grower network supporting over 15,000 smallholder farmers in Hambela and Yirgacheffe (Gedeb), and established Africa’s first privately owned SCA-certified specialty coffee laboratory.

Aman's contributions shape the coffee industry globally. As former Chief Operations Officer of the Ethiopia Commodity Exchange (ECX), he co-designed the specialty coffee grading infrastructure that anchors Ethiopian coffee quality today. He continues to impact the sector through direct board tenures with the Coffee Quality Institute (CQI), Cup of Excellence, the World Producers Forum, and the Ethiopian Coffee Exporters Association.
