Exciting times at Impact Capital Partners as we introduce the Impact Mezzanine (IM) Fund
April 8, 2024

Impact Capital Partners is thrilled to share one of earliest transactions. The Fund supports Kwezi Coffee Limited, a female founded and managed specialty coffee exporter in Uganda.

With a network of over 2,000 farmers, Kwezi Coffee has made remarkable strides in ensuring the finest quality arabica and robusta beans reach the global market. Their commitment to fairness is evident, providing a sustainable and equitable market for smallholder coffee growers and empowering women in the industry.

With 74% of their workforce and 80% of their farmers being women, they’re not just selling coffee; they’re brewing change. IM Fund’s working capital leveraged x7 in working capital from an aligned impact investor, allowing the company to pilot direct exports, leading to increased farmgate prices for their suppliers. This transaction symbolizes our commitment to gender equality and economic empowerment in emerging markets. We are proud to partner with businesses like Kwezi Coffee Limited that share our vision for a sustainable and inclusive future.
