About Muraho Trading Co & Dahwe:

Muraho Trading Company are our export partners in Rwanda.

The company was established in 2016 by two brothers of Indian origin - Gaudam and Karthick - who have grown up in Rwanda and have strong ties to the local communities. Their goal has always been to produce exceptional quality coffees, showcasing the best that Rwanda can offer while having a positive impact on rural development in the areas they operate. Since their early beginning operating one washing station - Kilimbi - on the shores of Lake Kivu, Muraho has now grown to running four stations in Nyamasheke region (Kilimbi, Gisheke, Cyesha & Rugali), one station in Nyabihu region (Shyira) where they also partner with and export coffee of the Vunga cooperative, and finally the Dahwer station and farm in Gisagara region.

Dahwe represents Muraho’s expansion into Rwanda’s Southern Province and reflects their vision of combining specialty coffee production with broader community development. More than a washing station, it is a hub where sustainable farming practices, food security, and coffee quality all come together.

Dahwe is Muraho’s latest venture, expanding into the lesser-known Gisagara region in the south of the country. Purchased in 2025, the station purchases coffee from 1,400 local farmers, growing cherries on approximately 340,000 trees; with the average farmer tending to around 240 trees. The station processes classic washed, natural as well as some anaerobic lots. Aside from producing coffee, Dahwe also functions as a model farm and coffee nursery. It’s a showcase of integrated, regenerative agriculture: coffee grows alongside avocado trees, pineapples and even a herd of Ankole cattle. Last year, the nursery produced over 74,000 coffee seedlings for the local community.

This is Dahwe’s classic washed lot, with a clean, sweet, quintessentially Rwandan profile.
