Started by brothers, Assefa and Mulugeta Dukamo, Daye Bensa Coffee is one of the major coffee exporting companies in Ethiopia; exporting green coffee directly from its own farms & stations, along with the farms of affiliated farmers.

Both brothers grew up in a coffee producing family & Assefa, the eldest, felt the responsibility to help with the family's harvest & take their coffees to market. Together, the brothers have celebrated much success in their aims to support their own family along with many others in the area, exporting coffees for farms & washing stations across the region.

The creation of the brother's own washing stations began in 1997, less than a mile from their parents home. Following this the company only began to grow more successfully and in 2006 the company was finally able to manage it's own exports.

Producers are able to their own certifications, receive mentoring and training from Daye Bensa, all to help improve their coffee quality and businesses.

Assefa has also received accolades such as trophies and certificates from local and regional agencies for the work at Daye Bensa of supplying high quantities of quality coffees to central market, along with his social and economic contributions to the region.
