Life before Ormado Kaffeehaus

The journey from being a foreign student studying in Frankfurt Oder, a small town in Germany, to establishing an international German coffee brand, the journey wasn’t easy for Orkhan Ahmadov.

Born and raised in Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, Orkhan did not have many opportunities to pursue. Belonging from a family of teachers and doctors, he dreamt of being a government officer while growing up. However, unable to clear the exams on the first attempt, Orkhan had to let go of his dream.

But his ambitions to achieve big made him try further and in 2014, he came to study master’s in Human Rights at the European University of Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder) in Germany. “By this time, I knew that I didn’t want to become a government official, rather start my own business,” Orkhan expresses.

Dreams Brewing

“For a foreign student who couldn’t speak German, finding a job was way more difficult for me,” Orkhan recalls the challenges he faced during his early days in Germany.

However, after searching for months, Orkhan got his first job in Berlin by the end of 2014. While switching from being a security guard to a delivery boy and working as a barista, Orkhan realized his interest in the food and restaurant industry. After working at Starbucks and local coffee shops, he finally found his niche – coffee. Now the next step was to learn the nitty-gritty of running a business.
