Cryptographic verification
Utilizing the Google Earth Engine API to run satellite canopy metrics, proving farm legitimacy and eliminating middleman plot-spoofing.
Building The World's Largest Direct-Trade Coffee Community.
The coffee supply chain is broken, strangled by “The Big Choke”.
By combining cloud-based satellite intelligence, instant mobile payment routing, and a trusted network of 50,000+ smallholder farmers, we bypass exploitative middlemen cartels to establish direct trade between origin and the global market.

OpenCoffee does not belong to standard corporate traders.
It belongs to the losing ends of a broken system: the farmers who pour their sweat into the soil and the everyday coffee lovers who fund the industry.
OpenCoffee belongs to everyone.
If you care about the future of coffee, your seat is at the table.
Help us break the choke.
The Core Mission — Breaking the Choke
Independent coffee roasters pay premium retail prices, yet first-mile smallholders live in subsistence loops.
Entrenched networks of middlemen, corporate oligopsonies, and informal supply chain cartels can swallow up to 90% of the value.
We operate a technology coordination layer designed to remove predatory intermediaries and connect origin directly with buyers.
Owned by the edges.Broken in the middle.
Direct trade anywhere in the world.
Our Strategic Goals
Instant liquidity
Deploying secure, escrow-backed stablecoin-to-mobile-money pipelines (M-Pesa/MTN) to pay farmers their true value on drop-off day.
Regulatory armor
Delivering automated, audit-proof EUDR compliance statements directly from our first-mile mapping infrastructure.

The Initial Target Project — The Sub-Saharan Vanguard
Start with one cluster.
Prove the whole model.
We are launching our 48-Hour Validation Playbook in East Africa.
The stated target network includes 50,000+ Sub-Saharan African producers; our first vanguard cluster is focused on 100 to 500 geographically concentrated coffee farmers.
The pilot will map plots, protect producer margins, and coordinate first direct-export containers to global specialty coffee buyers.
East Africa, on the map.
