Kenya Coffee School – Barista on the Move & Barista Mtaani: Bringing Specialty Coffee to Communities

Kenya Coffee School, through its dynamic Barista on the Move program and the youth-powered Barista Mtaani initiative, is redefining how Kenyans experience specialty coffee. By deploying professional mobile coffee pop-up carts, the program creates meaningful jobs for young people while making high-quality espresso-based beverages accessible in neighborhoods, corporate events, and community spaces across the country.

At the heart of this model is youth empowerment. Each pop-up cart is staffed by a trained barista—equipped with world-class skills from Kenya Coffee School—who delivers high-quality service and elevates the coffee culture right where people gather. The program serves as both a job-creation engine and a bridge between Kenya’s rich coffee heritage and everyday consumers.

Whether you’re an organization hosting an event, a corporate team running a workshop, a community group, or a private gathering, Barista on the Move brings a fully equipped mobile café to your location. The setup includes a versatile specialty-coffee menu crafted around Kenyan espresso, lattes, cappuccinos, americanos, iced coffee, and signature drinks.

The service is designed to be quick, professional, and memorable, allowing you to enjoy premium coffee without the cost and complexity of setting up a full café. Every cup served supports a young barista’s career, strengthens Kenya’s coffee value chain, and promotes true appreciation for locally grown specialty beans.

In partnership with Barista Mtaani, this program symbolizes a bigger mission—to take coffee back to the people, celebrate Kenyan farmers, and ensure that youth can participate in dignified, skilled, and sustainable jobs within the coffee industry.

Wherever you are—we bring the coffee to you.
