A 100 YEAR JOURNEY— UGANDA TO VIRGINIA
Our coffee tradition started in 1895 when Ebrahim Moledina, the grandfather of the current owner, emigrated from India to Uganda, East Africa and began trading cherished goods such as cotton, sesame seeds, edible beans and ultimately coffee. During the mid-1950’s Ebrahim’s son, Hassan, established an exporting and trading company, with offices in Kenya and throughout East Africa. The company focus then was solely on the wholesale export of coffee and tea from East Africa to the world.
In 1994, Hanif Moledina, the current CEO, moved to the United States and established Kiariz Coffee in Sterling,Virginia as a Speciality Coffee Roaster. By 2004, the company had outgrown its facility in Sterling and relocated to a state of the art roasting facility in Luray,Virginia. Luray is set in the beautiful valley of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah River.
As exporters, importers, and now roasters, Kiariz is able to source and supply the world’s finest speciality coffee and backs this up with unparalleled service and support to its customers.
