About Us

Utake is a Swahili word coined from the word Desire, which is a result that resonates with all the great things in coffee- knowledge, skill and the best that the global sector has to offer.

Colloquially, it is a drive to domestic coffee consumption, one of the ways to understand, trade and keep abreast with trends in this dynamic industry.

We seek to Empower and Promote the best of Africa!
