About Akoma Coffee

Akoma Coffee specializes in the wholesale distribution of specialty coffee - green beans and roasted coffee - from Cameroon. Akoma Coffee’s mission is to bring the finest sustainably farmed coffee from Cameroon straight to your table. Our project is deeply rooted in family tradition, inspired by the legacy of my grandparents, who cultivated coffee and cocoa in the fertile lands of Manjo, Cameroon. We take immense pride in sharing the rich flavors of our homeland, offering products from Cameroon that not only delight the senses but also foster local economic growth. Every cup of Akoma Coffee carries a piece of Cameroon, a tribute to both its people and the land. We are driven by a profound commitment to environmental stewardship. By cultivating our coffee without the use of chemicals, we ensure that our methods align with the natural rhythms of the earth. Grown in the western highlands and South West of Cameroon (Mbouda, Manjo, Buea, Loum)—our coffee thrives in nutrient-rich volcanic soil and enjoys ample rainfall, resulting in a truly exceptional brew. Akoma Coffee is celebrated for its elegance—a rich, full-bodied experience with a mellow flavor, a delightful aroma, and a smooth, chocolatey finish. With every sip, we invite you to join us in honoring tradition and promoting sustainability.

Founder Story

Achille Massoma’s journey from Cameroon to the United States is one driven by a commitment to social change, purpose, and entrepreneurship. As the founder of Akoma Coffee, Massoma is on a mission to share the essence of Cameroon’s finest coffee—locally roasted, ethically sourced, sustainably farmed, and meticulously crafted. At its heart, Akoma Coffee is a tribute to Massoma’s grandparents, who, in the small town of Manjo, devoted their lives to cultivating coffee and cocoa. Their dedication to the land and community not only sustained their family but also laid the foundation for a tradition that runs deep in Massoma’s veins. Akoma Coffee, more than a business, is a bridge—a bridge that connects Cameroon’s rich agricultural heritage to coffee lovers worldwide while empowering local farmers and championing sustainable practices. Growing up within the global tapestry of the African diaspora, Massoma has always been guided by a desire to uplift others. His approach to social entrepreneurship intertwines economic growth, social impact, and empowerment. For over a decade, he has channeled his energy into business and community initiatives that foster lasting positive change. Akoma Coffee stands as the embodiment of this vision—a project designed to spark local economic development while remaining deeply attuned to environmental stewardship. Massoma’s vision is not just to deliver a rich, full-bodied coffee with a smooth, chocolatey finish; it is to ensure that each cup carries the story of tradition, sustainability, and community. He invites the world to partake in the beauty of Cameroon’s coffee culture—a culture that nourishes both the land and the spirit. With every sip, Akoma Coffee offers more than a taste of Cameroon; it offers a connection to its people and a promise that every bean harvested supports the environment and the communities that cultivate it. Achille Massoma’s dream is to see Akoma Coffee in homes across the globe, creating bonds and shared experiences through the simple, powerful act of enjoying a cup of coffee.
