WHAT WE DO
AT HOMAGE, WE ARE MOTIVATED BY QUALITY COFFEE, ITS GLOBAL FOOTPRINT, AND ITS CAPACITY TO IMPACT PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES.
WE ARE determined to DEVELOP MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS WITH the people and communities we touch, from the PRODUCEr, to the ROASTER, AND end consumer.
We are dedicated to honor, promote, and connect those who are diligent in cultivating and expressing their craft, and generating OPPORTUNITIES FOR COLLECTIVE GROWTH.
ORIGIN:
We are diligent in our pursuit of quality coffee, thoroughly evaluating coffee quality and potential, while cultivating and upholding authentic partnerships across east africa.
we spend time with each of our producer partners to understand their operation, evaluating strengths and weaknesses, and identifying growth opportunities.
after investigating the operating environment, we work out a fair price for the coffee - a price that supports the producer and upholds a growth trajectory, while also generating opportunities throughout the supply chain.
Through our exporting offices in burundi and uganda, we are able to move the coffee out of the country for our producer partners, and be their advocate in the market, promoting their coffee to buyers around the world.
LOGISTICS:
THrough our operation in Burundi and Uganda, we facilitate export for our producer partners in east africa, and coordinate logistics to international coffee markets.
we coordinate sea freight and import logistics to securely move the coffee from origin to market.
In north america, Our coffee is consolidated and stored in Continental terminals in New Jersey, Dupuy Storage IN houston, and the annex warehouse IN oakland.
additionally, through our TEAMS in burundi and uganda, we export and sell coffee direct to roasters and other importing companies, providing access to the coffee at FOB.
ROASTER:
At Homage, all coffee is sourced, shipped, and sold with integrity, transparency, and traceability.
We are passionate about the coffee we source, and the people who diligently cultivate its quality. WE only offer coffee with a quality we are proud to stand behind, and from people we are proud to advocate for.
All coffee is sold on a forward basis, increasing access to unique coffees that stand out on the cupping table, and add balance to a roast menu. All lots are highly traceable and uniform - We offer pre-ship samples, with arrival samples upon request.
We are dedicated to paying the producer generously and streamlining our own operation to offer high quality coffee at a price that creates opportunity for the roaster as well.
We bridge the gap between the Roaster and Producer, facilitating connection rather than standing in between.
