WHO WE ARE
Xaymaca Coffee Traders was created in 2009 by the patriarch of the Levy family, David Levy. He built our company on 2 simple tenets – excellent customer service and honesty.
We, at XCT, will always call you back, and we will always tell our customers and partners the truth so they can run their businesses effectively.
By staying true to our values, Xaymaca has become the leading coffee importer and distributor of Jamaica’s Blue Mountain Coffee and the US representative of Coffee Traders Limited – the #1 Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee producer both in quantity and quality.
OUR NAME - XAYMACA
The Tainos, previously referred to as the Arawaks, have often been described as the earliest inhabitants of Jamaica and the first to have come into contact with the Spaniards. Interestingly, the name of the island ‘Jamaica’ is believed to be of Taino origin as it was derived from their reference to the island as Xaymaca—land of wood and water.
HOW XAYMACA COFFEE TRADERS BEGAN
In the fall of 2008, David reached a crossroads and it became very apparent that he was the driving force behind several profitable business ventures – companies for which he had given so much of himself, but were not his own. In pondering his next move, David chose to adopt William Ernest Henley’s stance from the poem Invictus: he wanted to be “the master of his fate, the captain of his soul”.
Building something to be proud of
He aimed to build something he could be proud of, and equally important, something he could pass on to his three children. Having worked for the United Nations for 15+ years, as well as taking on roles in both real estate and investment banking, David learned that across all cultures and languages people can and will appreciate the same core values.
A family business
David started the business with his wife, Angela, as his sole business partner and the two of them have run Xaymaca since 2009. His “why” behind building Xaymaca Coffee Traders was to ensure that his efforts – in whatever he did – would provide a reliable service to his clientele, and most of all ensure a connection with his beloved island home that guarantees benefits to the people of the Blue Mountain region and the Jamaican diaspora.As the business grew to be the #1 distributor of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee, David and Angela realized it was time to bring on their children and truly make the business what he had envisioned it to be so many years ago – a family business.
Sharing a strong heritage
Since 2019, they have integrated their three children into the business in preparation for their passing on the torch. Their children Damian, Rachelle, and Brianna are excited about joining their parents and sharing the beautiful heritage of Jamaica with their customers!
