Originally established in 2019, Gangga Roastery has been driven by a simple belief: exceptional coffee begins with exceptional care. Every green bean selected, every roast profile developed, and every relationship built reflects that belief.
Located in the cultural heart of Ubud, Bali, Gangga Roastery is proud to be a women-led coffee roastery serving cafés, restaurants, hotels, villas, offices, and coffee enthusiasts who value quality, consistency, and authenticity.
For us, being women-led is not simply about who leads the company. It is about how we lead—through precision, empathy, collaboration, and a long-term commitment to everyone involved in the coffee journey.
More Than a Coffee Roastery
The coffee industry often highlights equipment, roasting technology, and coffee origins. While these are essential, we believe another element is equally important: the people behind every decision.
Gangga Roastery was founded with the vision of becoming more than a place where coffee is roasted. We wanted to build a coffee business that values trust as much as taste, relationships as much as results, and sustainability as much as growth.
This philosophy continues to shape every aspect of our business today.
Why Being Women-Led Matters
Being a women-led coffee roastery is not about claiming that women make better coffee than men.
Coffee excellence comes from knowledge, experience, and continuous learning.
However, leadership shapes company culture. The values embraced by leadership influence how a business treats its customers, partners, suppliers, and team members.
At Gangga Roastery, our leadership encourages a culture built on patience, consistency, and attention to detail—qualities that are essential in specialty coffee.
Founded in 2019 with a Long-Term Vision
Gangga Roastery was established in 2019 with the goal of supporting the growing specialty coffee industry in Bali and Indonesia.
Rather than focusing solely on selling roasted coffee, we wanted to become a trusted roasting partner for businesses looking to build exceptional coffee experiences.
From independent cafés to restaurants, hotels, villas, offices, and private-label brands, our mission has always been the same:
To help businesses serve better coffee through quality roasting and meaningful collaboration.
A Vision from the Founder
For Putu Surya, founding Gangga Roastery in 2019 was never just about roasting coffee.
“When we started Gangga Roastery, our goal wasn’t simply to sell coffee. We wanted to build a company that people could trust. Coffee is about relationships—between farmers, roasters, café owners, and everyone who enjoys the final cup. If we can consistently create value for every person in that chain, then we’re building something meaningful.”
— Putu Surya, Founder of Gangga Roastery
Putu believes that long-term success comes from consistency rather than chasing rapid growth. This philosophy continues to influence how Gangga Roastery sources coffee, develops roast profiles, and supports business partners across Bali and Indonesia.
Why Ubud, Bali?
Ubud has long been known as one of Bali’s cultural and creative centers.
It attracts people who appreciate craftsmanship, sustainability, hospitality, and authentic experiences.
These values naturally align with specialty coffee.
Being based in Ubud allows us to collaborate with cafés, restaurants, boutique hotels, wellness spaces, and hospitality businesses that share the same commitment to quality and customer experience.
At the same time, our location connects us with coffee professionals from around the world who visit Bali to explore Indonesian coffee.
The Values That Define Gangga Roastery
Quality Before Quantity
Every coffee has its own character.
Instead of applying one roasting profile to every origin, we develop roast profiles that respect the unique characteristics of each coffee.
Consistency matters more than volume.
Our objective is simple:
Every bag of coffee should deliver the same quality that our customers expect.
Attention to Detail
Specialty coffee is built on precision.
A few seconds during roasting can change sweetness, acidity, body, and aroma.
Because of this, every production stage receives careful attention, including:
- Green bean selection
- Roast profile development
- Batch monitoring
- Quality control
- Cupping evaluation
- Packaging
Small details create meaningful differences in the final cup.
Relationships Before Transactions
Coffee connects many people.
Farmers.
Processors.
Importers.
Roasters.
Baristas.
Business owners.
Customers.
We believe successful coffee businesses are built through trust and long-term collaboration—not short-term transactions.
Whether working with cafés, hotels, restaurants, offices, or distributors, we aim to become a reliable partner who understands each customer’s unique needs.
Continuous Learning
Coffee is constantly evolving.
New processing methods, harvesting techniques, brewing styles, and roasting technologies continue to emerge.
Rather than relying on past success, we remain committed to learning through research, experimentation, cupping sessions, and collaboration with coffee professionals.
Continuous improvement is part of our roasting philosophy.
Sustainability
Sustainability means creating long-term value for everyone involved in the coffee supply chain.
For us, this includes:
- Supporting responsibly sourced Indonesian coffee
- Building lasting partnerships
- Reducing unnecessary waste where possible
- Creating stable relationships with business customers
- Promoting responsible growth
A sustainable coffee business benefits producers, roasters, cafés, and consumers alike.
Leading with Care and Consistency
Today, the day-to-day operations of Gangga Roastery are led by Ni Wayan Suryani, whose leadership reflects the company’s commitment to quality, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
“Every bag of coffee carries our name, so every batch deserves our full attention. Consistency isn’t something we promise only once—it’s something we work to earn every single day. That’s why we pay attention to every detail, from green bean selection and roasting to packaging and customer service.”
— Ni Wayan Suryani, Manager of Gangga Roastery
Under her leadership, Gangga Roastery continues to cultivate a working culture where precision, open communication, and teamwork are valued as highly as technical roasting skills. The result is a roasting process that not only produces quality coffee but also builds long-term confidence among customers and business partners.

Celebrating Indonesian Coffee
Indonesia produces some of the world’s most distinctive coffees.
Each growing region offers unique characteristics influenced by altitude, climate, soil, processing methods, and local traditions.
At Gangga Roastery, we are passionate about showcasing these diverse coffee origins through thoughtful roasting that highlights each coffee’s natural potential.
Our work is rooted in appreciation—for the farmers who grow the coffee, the businesses that serve it, and the people who enjoy every cup.
Looking Ahead
Gangga Roastery has continued to grow alongside Bali’s dynamic coffee community.
Our ambition is not simply to roast more coffee.
Our ambition is to create stronger partnerships, elevate Indonesian coffee, and contribute positively to the specialty coffee industry through integrity, consistency, and continuous learning.
A Women-Led Philosophy, Not Just a Label
Being a women-led coffee roastery based in Ubud, Bali is not the conclusion of our story.
It is the foundation of how we approach our work every day.
Leadership is reflected not only in business decisions but also in the way we listen, collaborate, maintain quality, and build trust over time.
At Gangga Roastery, every roast profile, every customer relationship, and every partnership reflects the same belief:
Great coffee is created with care, shared through collaboration, and remembered because of the people behind it.
