You Are Invited
Join us in Kigali
On behalf of Sustainable Growers Rwanda, we are honoured to invite you to Kigali for three days that will reshape how the global coffee industry thinks, trades, and leads.
The Global Coffee Conference 2026 is a convening where producers, buyers, policymakers, researchers, roasters, and development partners from Africa, Latin America, and beyond come together as one, to advance collaboration across origin systems and global markets, and to build a more resilient, inclusive, and connected coffee economy. Every session is designed for practical action. Every conversation will end with a commitment, not just applause.
The program will feature plenary discussions, B2B engagement sessions, thematic roundtables, and origin learning exchanges designed to support practical collaboration and partnership development.
