FROM SUNRISE
to Sip
A legacy rooted in Ethiopian soil, grown with integrity, and shared with the world. Since 1990.
It all began with the visionary spirit of Mr. Berhanu Semu, whose unwavering dedication to the land laid the foundation for a legacy destined to transcend generations.
With the establishment of his first coffee farm, he planted more than seedlings—he planted a vision. A vision rooted in integrity, quality, and a deep respect for Ethiopia's rich coffee heritage.
Today, SLB Trading stands as a powerful testament to Mr. Berhanu's pioneering spirit. From humble beginnings as a local supplier to a globally recognized exporter, earning trust across continents.
