Global traders of Origin Coffee

At Origin Merchants, we believe the world’s finest commodities begin at the source — the origin. Established in Europe as a coffee trade house, our mission is to bridge the gap between authentic producers and discerning buyers, creating transparent, reliable, and sustainable supply chains.

Our journey begins with a partnership between two trusted partners: Darley Investments Ltd, a heritage coffee exporter based in Kampala, Uganda and Chartered Associates Corp, a Canada-based investment banking advisory firm with global presence, to establish an international coffee and other agriculture commodities trading firm.

With decades of expertise in sourcing, processing, and exporting Ugandan green coffee, Darley embodies the values Origin Merchants was founded on — authenticity, traceability, and quality. Together, we bring Uganda’s coffee to global markets with the assurance of deep-rooted experience at origin.

But Ugandan coffee is just the beginning. Origin Merchants is built to grow across multiple origins— adding new trusted suppliers, and strategic assets to our network as we expand into new origins. Each partnership is carefully selected, ensuring buyers can count on consistency, reliability, and ethical sourcing.

What sets us apart is our direct partnerships at origin. By working hand-in-hand with established exporters, we don’t just sell a commodity — we are part of the story at the source. This approach allows us to offer unmatched transparency, ensuring our clients know exactly where their product comes from, how it was grown, and who made it possible.

At Origin Merchants, we are more than a trading company. We are a global network of origins, united under one vision: to deliver authentic, sustainable, and world-class coffees from source to market.
