How It All Started
Bold Women, Bold Coffee, Boundless Possibilities
A Pivotal Phone Call
Beyond Borders, Within Reach.
Lennart, from This Side Up, reached out to Gloria about exporting Sakami Coffee but needed more volume. Gloria saw not just an opportunity, but a calling, and set out to find women who shared her vision—entrepreneurs ready to break barriers and rewrite the narrative. Hence in her search, a doctor, a marketer, a banker, a beauty expert, and a teacher—Dr. Rosebella, Susan, Jane, Gloria, and Maria—came together to form NORT
Through their partnership with This Side Up, NORT has forged direct trade connections across Europe—reaching markets that value not just the richness of their coffee, but the soul of the women behind it.
This is more than trade; it’s a bridge—carrying craft, resilience, and dreams. Each cup is a tribute to courage and unity, a story felt as much as tasted. With every sip, it echoes the strength of women rewriting history—hands that nurture, minds that innovate, and a movement grounded in purpose.
