Founders Tale

My journey with Coffee Festival™ began in 2014 as a quiet dialogue with industry mentors about what the Bangladeshi coffee scene could become. At the time, specialty coffee was a whisper; today, it is a roar.

After a decade of nurturing this vision, 2024 was our “leap of faith” with just six pioneering participants. Today, as we enter our 3rd Edition, that snowball effect has become an unstoppable force. We aren’t just hosting an event; we are architecting an ecosystem where retail excellence, global technology, and local passion converge.

In 2026, the Coffee Festival Dhaka stands as a testament to our evolution—integrating smart logistics, world-class machinery, and a community that demands nothing less than the “Gold Standard.” We are no longer just dreaming of a vibrant gathering; we are living it.

The story is unfolding, the momentum is ours, and the best is yet to come. Join us as we redefine the coffee landscape of Bangladesh, one cup at a time.
