The BEST Coffee Roasters in Parrearra QLD

In 2011, Kai Coffee Founders Sean and Emily Naus set off to Australia with their 9 month old son Elijah Kai on an adventure that would forever change their lives. Sean had always been a massive coffee fan and thought he knew good coffee until he stumbled upon a little cafe in Byron Bay, New South Wales. The flavor of the coffee and texture of the milk was unlike anything he had ever experienced in America and he was hooked! Sean and Emily had always had a heart for children in the developing world who were hungry and in need of care. 6 months after moving to Australia they decided to try an experiment. Could they roast coffee and sell it at markets to help send funds to Uganda, Africa and bless kids in need? They ordered a small 500g coffee roaster and Kai Coffee was born. 9 years later that little home experiment grew into a full fledged roasting distribution and training company. Kai Coffee has supplied over 80 cafes around Australia and growing everyday. Last year they were able to send 200,000 meals to kids in Uganda through the work of the Shepherd Center in the South West corner of Uganda and Feed The Hungry, Australia in Northern Uganda.

One year later The Colombian Coffee Co. opened its doors in 2015 and we never looked back! By roasting our own responsibly sourced, speciality coffee beans and prioritising quality and customer care we have been championed and embraced by the community in Mooloolaba where we opened our flagship café. Following the success of The Colombian Coffee Co. we opened a second project in nearby town called Buderim – The Roastery, where our UG15 Probat coffee roaster services the demands of our growing business.
