Today we’d like to introduce you to Quazaa Mayberry.
Hi Quazaa, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
My journey began in the quiet, uncertain early days of 2020. While the world was shutting down, I found myself finding solace in the ritual of a morning cup of coffee. As an African American man watching my community disproportionately affected by both the pandemic and economic instability, I realized I wanted to build something that wasn’t just a product, but a symbol of resilience. I launched my web-based coffee brand from my kitchen, driven by the goal of delivering premium, ethically sourced beans to people who—like me—were looking for a moment of peace in a chaotic time.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Getting started was only the first hurdle. As a digital-first brand, I faced:
• Supply Chain Chaos: From shipping delays to rising costs of green coffee beans, the logistics of a global pandemic tested my patience and my pockets.
• The Funding Gap: Like many Black entrepreneurs, I faced significant barriers in accessing capital, often having to bootstrap every single cent while competing with larger brands that had massive marketing budgets.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
Quazaams Coffee is a dedicated small-batch coffee roastery focused on delivering fresh, high-quality beans directly to our customers’ doorsteps. As a founder-led “one-man show,” I take pride in overseeing every step of the process to ensure that every bag we ship meets the highest standards of flavor and freshness.
What we specialize in:
We specialize in curated, small-batch roasts that prioritize taste and accessibility. We are best known for our convenient delivery model and our commitment to making premium coffee a seamless part of your daily routine.
What sets us apart:
What truly distinguishes Quazaams Coffee is our focus on the social experience. While many brands focus solely on the bean, we focus on the moment the coffee creates. Our goal is to facilitate connection—whether you’re sharing a morning cup with a spouse, hosting a meeting with colleagues, or catching up with an old friend.
Our Brand Pride:
I am most proud of the smiles we bring to our customers’ faces. Knowing that Quazaams Coffee plays a small part in someone’s daily joy and social connection is the ultimate success for the brand. We want readers to know that when they buy from us, they aren’t just getting caffeine; they are getting a handcrafted experience designed to bring people together.
What makes you happy?
I’m happy most when I’m with my family. But I also have a great sense of joy when I know our customers are happy. I’m a pretty simple guy!
