A good cup of nice Wake Coffee

Wake Coffee is a Lovian brand of coffee products and a chain of coffee shops that only sell fair trade products. It also offers a selection of so-called 'green products'. The name comes from Wake Kofii which means 'coffee bean' in Ndebele, the native language of the owner and founder of the Wake Coffee brand, Harold Freeman. Wake Coffee is renowned for its good quality and service. Wake Coffee shops are spread all over the country but there is a concentration of stores in the capital city, Noble City. Prices at Wake Coffee are higher than with the competition but a good price for the farmers is ensured. Wake Coffee works together with international organisations such as Oxfam. Wake Coffee operates under the slogan "Every Cup Matters". Often is mistakenly pronounced 'weɪk' but in Ndebele is 'wɑːke'.

Types of coffee[]

Wake Coffee sells the two most common types of coffee, the Arabica and the Robusta. The coffee beans who are sold by Wake Coffee and the products made from them come from the following countries: Cameroon, Congo, Uganda, Kenia, Tanzania, Mozambique. Wake Coffee tried to contract coffee farmers in Zimbabwe too, but because the owner of Wake Coffee is active as a political activist against the Mugabe regime, the company couldn't get a license. Various mixtures are sold by the company. Most popular is the African Soul which is made from roasted of beans off mostly Kenya and Tanzania.
