About Al Maha

Rooted in Uganda. Connected to the World.

Uganda has grown coffee for generations. Robusta is native to its forests, Arabica thrives on the slopes of Mount Elgon and the Rwenzori Mountains, and coffee remains one of the country’s most important exports.

Al Maha works across that supply chain. We source, process, store, import and export green and roasted coffee, combining local operational presence with an international business outlook. Our own processing and warehousing facilities let us handle and prepare coffee directly, and every relationship we build is meant to last beyond a single shipment.
