As CEO, Kyra is responsible for building the Baratza brand and overseeing sales and operations. She has created a distribution network in North America plus developed an extensive network of worldwide importers. Kyra drives the marketing and distribution of the grinders through a focus on the niche market of small independent roasters and coffee shops. Specialty Coffee is a relatively small market, but one that fits with Baratza’s goal to be a small business that designs, manufactures, and distributes precision grinders to a specialized consumer. Kyra is passionate about listening, identifying problems and opportunities, and developing creative solutions to support its customers. Kyra is deeply committed to the team of people that make up Baratza, seeking to create an environment where each person’s skills and talents can be maximized and each person’s voice be heard. She recognizes that they are stronger and more prosperous through collaboration and the collective wisdom and experience of working across functions. Solid, quality products backed by compassionate, quality service–this is the winning combination you can expect from Baratza and Kyra Kennedy.
