History

Abana Coffee was established in 2009 on a 300-hectare plot near Gera. The family's involvement in the region began through Peter Omran's 25-year career in humanitarian aid and development, which eventually led them to start a coffee farm to support the local community. The estate has been exporting coffee and maintaining relationships with international roasters since at least 2018.
