A family firm in green coffee
Ken Gabbay Coffee Ltd. is a family owned and managed green coffee importer located in Montreal, Quebec. We import from every major coffee origin worldwide and sell to customers in Canada and the United States, from local micro-roasters to multinational roasting operations, drawing on a history in green coffee that goes back to Ken Gabbay's first beginnings in the industry.
We place a major focus on quality by investing in excellent long-term relationships with our suppliers and customers. Traceability is a priority, and we provide it by keeping a close and regular correspondence with local coffee farmers. That means routine trips to the origin countries where the farms are located. We promote and invest in these local farms and communities as part of a deliberate effort to take a proactive stance in every stage of the coffee's production and to guarantee sustainable business practices.
Regular cuppings provide assurance of every coffee's excellence. Our main goal as importers is to provide quality coffee, but as a family-owned company it matters to us to know the people and processes behind every cup, and to share that with our customers. Our success rests on the strength and trust between us and our partners, both customers and suppliers.
Quality, sustainability and transparency are all integral components of how we do business.

What we are not
No roasting. No retail. No consumer brand. We import green coffee and sell it to roasters. That focus is the whole business.
