Kaapi Royale Coffee of Karnataka, India has contracted coffee industry consulting firm CafeMakers to provide global business-to-business marketing and public relations services in 2009.

Kaapi Royale is a leading exporter of small specialty lot Indian Arabica and Robusta coffees, as well as the exclusive exporter of award-winning Sethuraman Estate coffees.

“Having had the recent opportunity to visit Kaapi Royale and their supplier farms in person, I was impressed by the revolutionary quality of their coffee and the thoughtfulness of their responsible business practices,” commented Andrew Hetzel, Director of Cafemakers. “It is a marketer’s dream to have the opportunity to represent such a rare and relatively unknown gem in our industry.”

“We are excited to have the opportunity to introduce the world to some of the best coffees that India has to offer,” said Nishant Gurjer, Managing Partner of Kaapi Royale. “Most specialty coffee professionals are skeptical that a Robusta coffee can rival the world’s best Arabicas, which is why we chose Cafemakers to use all available media to communicate our message and help change old industry stereotypes.”
