How We're Different
We're a Seattle-based, family owned small-batch coffee roaster working alongside growers to shift access to profit, ownership, resources, and human connection, all while prioritizing the best quality specialty-grade coffees.
Growers are the ones responsible for the quality and sustainability of the coffee -- but the price they are paid is unsustainable.
So we're doing things differently.
1. Revenue Share: On top of initial higher-than-standard purchase prices, we share an additional $1 per pound once the coffee is roasted and shelved. This means all our farm partners earn up to twice as much income and don't have to depend solely on seasonal income during harvest.
2. Our Mission: From seed to sale, we are actively working toward equity and quality in a fraught industry. At every turn, we center the inseparable goals of high quality specialty coffee and thriving humans at every level of labor.
Why We Started Onda
We didn’t set out to build a coffee company. When we created Onda Origins, we wanted to build a new way of doing business: one that brings value to the people who had been denied it.
Revenue Share with Farmer
Costa Rican coffee farmer Enrique Navarro built housing and a water purification system for his seasonal coffee pickers, thanks to money shared from your purchases of his coffee.
