3 African Sisters jobs and careers

About 3 African Sisters

Our story of 3 African Sisters comes from the African custom where extended families are referred to as Sisters and brothers. Rwanda is bordered by Burundi to the south and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west. These were all once one land. We source our green beans from these three countries – Rwanda, Burundi and the DR Congo. Today the Speciality green coffee from each of these origins are distinctive in their aromas and flavours. It is very common for a Rwandese family to have Sisters residing in these neighbouring countries. Like Sisters from one mother they too were separated each developing their own unique qualities, hence the story 3 African Sisters. Living here in Rwanda, the Land of a Thousand Hills and incredible coffee, we created the 3 African Sisters brand, as we wanted a coffee that portrayed Rwanda and its people for who and what they are today, a positive light and rising star, going forward with strength. - We wanted a coffee that told a story, a coffee with a purpose. Our coffee represents the heart, soul, and determination of the Rwandese people in this tiny oasis in the heart of Africa. I chose the face of women as our brand image, as I found it has been the women here in Rwanda, who have played such a fundamental part and have been instrumental in changing the image of this incredible country, from one of hate to one of hope. With an ethos of building a sustainable business, one of respect, integrity and solid relationships, I hope to contribute to the daily lives of all the people with whom I work.
