Kirinari Launches GoodyBeans, Coffee Roasting for Community Impact
22 September 2025
Kirinari is proud to announce the official launch of its newest social enterprise, GoodyBeans, on 22 September 2025. Formerly The Blessed Bean, GoodyBeans launches as a coffee brand that blends exceptional beans with meaningful social impact.
GoodyBeans will debut with three signature blends and a single origin roast, crafted under the expertise of Head of Coffee Operations, Jason Dowding. Coffee lovers will also be able to show their support through a fun new merch range, perfect for those who like to wear their love of coffee.
Every cup of GoodyBeans does more than deliver great flavour. All profits are reinvested directly back into Kirinari’s essential human services, helping to create a good life for all. The enterprise will also provide employment opportunities for people facing complex barriers to work, ensuring that every brew creates real change.
“GoodyBeans is about more than coffee. It is about community,” said Diane Lynch, CEO of Kirinari. “Every purchase helps fund vital services and creates opportunities for people who need them most. It is coffee with purpose.”
GoodyBeans will be available online at goodybeans.com.au and both served at and available for purchase at Rise Espresso, Kirinari’s community café on the border of Thurgoona and Lavington.
With its official launch, GoodyBeans invites everyone to brew a good brew and make every cup count for something bigger.
