Gobez Coffee LLC is a U.S. based, family owned importer and distributor of Ethiopian conventional and specialty green coffee. Through long term, strategic relationships with producers, cooperatives, and exporter partners across Ethiopia, including our role as North American representative for the Oromia Coffee Farmers’ Cooperative Union, we provide direct access to coffees from every major growing region.
Our national sourcing footprint enables buyers to secure the right coffees for both spot and program needs: a broad spectrum of flavor profiles, processing methods, and scalable volumes, delivered with disciplined execution. Every lot is supported by rigorous quality protocols, complete documentation, and end to end traceability, protecting lot integrity and ensuring consistent, repeatable performance from origin to arrival.
Built for buyers who want Ethiopian coffees they can feature, re buy, and scale.
We select coffees for clarity, structure, and roast versatility. Expect floral and tea like washed profiles, fruit forward naturals, and balanced coffees that perform across espresso and filter.
Region, producer or co-op, processing, altitude, harvest details, and clear lot identity so you can tell the story and stand behind it.
Fast samples, clear specs, responsive communication, and a straightforward path from selection to contract to arrival.
Chicago and Charlotte based fulfillment for efficient North American shipping, consistent handling, and predictable deliveries.
We offer point of origin procurement for full container loads, enabling roasters and trading partners to buy directly at source with tighter control over specifications, lot integrity, and total landed cost.
Ethiopia is the birthplace of Coffee Arabica and home to irreplaceable genetic diversity. That legacy depends on smallholder farmers and forest communities who steward coffee growing ecosystems.
When producers are underpaid or excluded from specialty premiums, forests face pressure from short term cash crops and the origin becomes fragile.
We address that risk with a trade model built for stable demand and fair compensation, connecting producers closer to specialty roasters who value what Ethiopia uniquely produces.
