Cerrado is a vast tropical savannah in the centre of Brazil that spans across almost 2 million square kilometres. It is recognized as the most biodiverse savannah in the world with approximately 10,000 different plant species. The land was long considered unsuitable for agriculture, until advances in science in the late 1990’s discovered the correct land management and fertilisation techniques for industrial agriculture in the region. Today, Cerrado is one of the most productive coffee regions in Brazil for consistently high-quality coffee.

At Bossa Coffee Company, we aim to simplify the coffee world by building genuine connections and embracing the power of shared learning.

We believe that sharing knowledge and experiences is the key to meaningful change. As both exporters and producers, we connect coffee origins and its final destination. Our goal is to bring insights from the consuming side of the industry back to the producing communities we proudly work with.

Our deep connection to Brazil gives us the opportunity to source coffees from all over the country. With established relationships across key coffee-producing regions such as Mogiana, South of Minas, Zona da Mata, and Cerrado, we have access to an incredible diversity of coffees. These connections are supported by partnerships in different locations, ensuring a wide-reaching and reliable sourcing network.

Over the years, we’ve built strong, long-term relationships with farmers, cooperatives, and industry professionals throughout Brazil. These partnerships allow us to consistently and sustainably purchase quality coffee and highlight the unique characteristics of various micro-regions, showcasing the diversity of Brazil’s coffee offerings.

While our roots are in Brazil, our vision goes beyond. We plan to curate coffees from other origins in the future, always focusing on partnerships with people doing meaningful work and deeply connected to their communities.
