History
Coava began in Matt Higgins' North Portland garage in 2008. The veteran barista and roaster bootstrapped the company by repairing motorcycles. Matt studied agriculture, farm practices, and sustainable business, and sought farmers committed to producing quality crops, focusing on under-sourced regions. His work earned him a reputation among coffee producers as respectful, diligent, and honest. Those early years laid the foundation for many longstanding partnerships Coava has with farmers to this day.
