Nostalgic Coffee started with three co-founders: Magezi Innocent, Reagan Suubi, and Nakato Caroline Bukirwaho, who met through the Consortium for Enhancing University Responsiveness to Agribusiness Development (CURAD) and shared a passion for specialty coffee and youth empowerment through coffee.
Today, that vision has grown into a team of ten young people running our roastery, coffee hub, and community outreach here in Kampala, Uganda.
From a shared dream to a growing coffee business, our journey is built on people, passion for coffee, and purpose. ☕
