Who we are

Nyota Noir is the meeting point of elegance, heritage, and excellence in green coffee trade. Established in 2025, our name — meaning “Black Star” — reflects our mission to illuminate the exceptional coffees of East Africa and elevate them to their rightful place in the global market.

With operational roots in both Canada and Kenya, Nyota Noir partners directly with trusted cooperatives and estates across East Africa, including Kenya and Tanzania. These long-standing relationships—built over five years of groundwork—ensure reliability, mutual respect, and consistently high-grade coffee.

We specialize in sourcing premium-grade green coffee beans, meticulously quality-graded and packaged in 60kg GrainPro-lined jute bags. From careful selection to climate-controlled shipment, every step is executed with precision to preserve the richness, aroma, and character unique to East African terroir.

At Nyota Noir, we serve specialty roasters and green coffee distributors across North America who demand not just exceptional flavor, but also supply chain integrity. We address key industry challenges such as:

  • Inconsistent access to premium-grade coffee

  • Limited direct connectivity to East African origins

We operate with rigorous internal standards and are actively exploring future collaborations that align with Fair Trade and Organic principles.

Our core values guide everything we do:

  • Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

  • Transparency

  • Cultural Pride & Representation

  • Quality Excellence

Nyota Noir is more than a supplier — we are a curator of origin, a custodian of craft, and a bridge between continents. We invite you to experience East African coffee at its finest — distinct, dignified, and delivered with purpose.
