Konnichiwa Fam, On E098, I sit down with Mike Okara and Young Park from Gold Rock International and Masai Coffee for a conversation around coffee, Korean entrepreneurship, Kenyan business culture, and building brands from scratch. We get into the hidden side of Kenya’s coffee industry, colonial-era regulations, coffee cartels, roasting, specialty coffee, and why Kenyan coffee is considered some of the best in the world.We also get into Korean culture, immigration, military history, conspiracy theories, business lessons, and the realities of entrepreneurship in Kenya. And much, much more.Hope you enjoy the episode.Best,Team Coffee PumpJoin Our Membership and get access to videos early: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkZKGnWZWb-S9wJdz9IGDTw/joinOur Sponsors:ANDO- Download the Ando app: https://linktr.ee/ando_foods- Get 10% off your order using the code COFFEEPUMP10Camera's Africa- Website: https://www.camerasafrica.com- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/camerasafrica_/Find Young and Mike:- Young's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/young._.parks/- Gold Rock International - https://www.goldrockinternational.com- Masai Coffee Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/masai_coffee_ke/- Masai Coffee Instagram 2 - https://www.instagram.com/masaicoffee/- Young's first short film: https://youtu.be/FvoIAJdTUAQ?si=UfU1d4Ibx-u3-64IFind our host Sajid Vayani:- Linktree: https://l1nq.com/2y681zvCoffee Pump Spotify, Apple and Socials: - Linktree: https://l1nq.com/2y681zv
