Kenya Coffee School (KCS) and Barista Mtaani have achieved a remarkable international milestone! 🎉
Good for Education (G4E) — a subsidiary of the prestigious GOOD for Trade (G4T) Certification — has officially endorsed KCS and Barista Mtaani as the Best Coffee School in Kenya, Africa, and globally.

This recognition celebrates their progressive innovation in coffee education and unmatched accessibility to global coffee supply chains, setting a new benchmark for excellence in the coffee sector.


The endorsement by G4E places Kenya Coffee School and Barista Mtaani on the global map of coffee excellence. It acknowledges years of dedication to:

  • ✅ World-class barista and coffee education
  • 🌍 Strengthening farmer-to-market linkages through transparent supply chains
  • 🚀 Innovating youth-centered education models for the coffee industry
  • 🌱 Promoting sustainability, inclusivity, and entrepreneurship

This achievement is not just a win for the institutions — it’s a proud moment for Kenya and Africa’s coffee community.


Kenya Coffee School and Barista Mtaani have redefined what coffee education means in Africa. Through hands-on training, digital learning platforms, and community-based initiatives, they’ve created pathways for youth, farmers, and entrepreneurs to actively participate in the global coffee economy.

Their innovations include:

  • 📚 Modern barista training programs tailored for global standards
  • 🚐 “Espresso on Wheels” coffee carts that bring coffee culture to communities
  • 🌐 Digital platforms that connect producers, students, and markets
  • 🤝 Partnerships that build inclusive value chains

At the heart of this milestone is a shared vision: to make coffee accessible, inclusive, and transformative.
KCS and Barista Mtaani are committed to creating jobs, building skills, and opening international opportunities for young people and farmers across Africa.

Through practical education and real market exposure, they are breaking barriers that have long limited African participation in premium global coffee markets.


This endorsement by G4E is not just symbolic — it represents a shift in global perception. Africa, and particularly Kenya, is increasingly being recognized as a leader in specialty coffee knowledge, innovation, and culture.

Kenya Coffee School and Barista Mtaani now stand as flagship institutions, inspiring similar initiatives worldwide.
