The Mwanyi Terimba Story
A Legacy of Prosperity
Inspired by the Kabaka of Buganda's mission for prosperity, we strive to bring the finest Ugandan coffee to the world.
“Prosperity for all through the land's bounty.”
UGANDA Coffee Shop
Uganda Coffee Shop (Terimba Coffee) began as KUMBA's flagship trade enterprise, created by Ugandan diaspora professionals in Japan to connect Ugandan farmers with Japanese coffee culture through fair, direct trade.
With Uganda as Africa's leading coffee exporter, the shop became one of the most visible Ugandan brands in Japan, serving thousands at Expo 2025 Osaka's PANAF African Dining Hall.
We now operate across Yamaguchi, Fukuoka, Osaka, and Kobe, with a roadmap to Tokyo, Kyoto, Nagoya, and Sapporo.
Our portfolio includes single-origin beans and drip bags, innovative beverages like coffee beer and vanilla ale, and Ugandan agro-products such as dried fruits, tooke flour, and vanilla.
KUMBA Co., Ltd — Parent Company
