Mukuyu Hill Coffee website designed by USBIT Solutions

01The concept

Mukuyu Hill Coffee is a fictional business we created to show how we approach farms and food brands: a family coffee farm on the slopes of Mount Kenya that roasts its own beans. Mukuyu is the Kikuyu name for the fig tree.

02The brief

Sell coffee directly instead of only through the co-operative: build a simple shop with subscriptions, tell the family’s story, and turn visitors to Nyeri into paying farm tours.

03What we built

An earthy, proud brand

Two coffee cherries under a fig tree, hill green, cherry red and harvest gold, and Bitter with Rubik type, set out in brand guidelines.

A small online shop

Three coffees with tasting notes, a live basket total and an M-Pesa checkout button.

The family story

Three generations, the tree the farm is named after and how the coffee is picked and dried.

Farm-visit bookings

Morning and afternoon tours with prices and a booking form, for visitors and coffee lovers.
