Meet today's Guest:
Tebabu Assesfa - Co-Founder of Blessed Coffee -Tebabu's longtime passion in cultural promotion, work in media to promote African culture, and his use of stories to excite markets for African products has resulted in a new model, which creates international market linkages for higher-value and profit-sharing with farmers and producers to foster and advance economic and social development.
To showcase the model, Tebabu founded Blessed Coffee (BC), a social business that imports, roasts, brands and distributes premium Ethiopian coffee to the wholesale and cottage-café retail market.
BC is the second company to register as a Benefit Corporation in the State of Maryland. BC connects 200,000 small coffee farmers, organized under the Oromia Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union (OCFCU) in Ethiopia, with the specialty coffee consumer in the US market.
