Migoti Coffee Company is a specialty coffee producer located on Migoti Mountain, 30 km from Bujumbura, Burundi. Omwani partnered with Migoti in 2020, sourcing cherries from local farmers across the mountains and working to support the surrounding community.
Migoti's History: In 2015, coffee farming in Burundi had nearly vanished due to the 12-year civil war (1993-2003) that left farms neglected or destroyed. As the country moved toward peace, local engineers Dan Brose and Pontien Ntunzwenimana saw an opportunity to revive coffee production. In 2016, they successfully launched Migoti, with Dan handling business and Pontien building a washing station. Today, Migoti exports over 300 tons of coffee annually, providing stable income and infrastructure for the surrounding community.
