The African School of Coffee

Women in coffee, we celebrate YOU! ☕️

Today, we’re celebrating the incredible women of ASC. The women who show up, share their knowledge, solve problems, build relationships and keep pushing our industry forward.

Thank you for your hard work and the impact you make at ASC, and across the coffee community.

Here’s to the women who are shaping the industry, and making space for those who come next.

We see you. We appreciate you. And we’re proud to have you on our team.

Happy Women’s Day! 🧡✨

It’s women’s month!

To celebrate the amazing women in coffee, join SMPL on our cupping table, as they showcase their August subscription box, featuring 5 of SA’s best female-lead roasteries.

Congratulations to Lawrence Mokoena on being elected to the SCASA Board for the 2027/2028 cycle!

Building relationships and talking coffee all day is finally catching up to him, and we couldn’t be prouder.

We cannot wait to witness the impact you will make in our industry, while we proudly boast that we knew you before you were famous 😏🧡
