About Sasini
Tinganga is a 182 hectare estate first established during the colonial era, now one of six estates owned and run by Sasini, a majority Kenyan owned, publicly listed company. Kiambu County sits close to the equator, with iron rich, semi-volcanic soils, abundant sunshine and consistently high altitude, conditions well suited to arabica. Cool overnight temperatures in these highlands allow cherries to mature slowly, building the acidity and complexity that comes through in the cup.
Sasini's estates place a strong emphasis on equity and community. Workers are provided with housing, early childhood education, union membership and wages above the minimum, and the estate has also invested in the local primary school, including funding a computer lab to build students' digital skills.
Celebrating 10 Years of social impact through coffee.
We roast in London and run cafés across the city. The business and the Employment Programme are the same thing: every bag, wholesale account and flat white funds training and paid work for people who have experienced homelessness.
