Where did the name INDABA come from?

In 2007, Bobby Enslow had a chance to travel to South Africa with an organization called Two Tunics where he assisted in the development of small business through micro-financing.  This experience made an impact on his life and when INDABA needed a name, Bobby chose "INDABA", tying his past experiences into his dreams for the coffee shop.

What does INDABA mean?

INDABA is a Zulu word that refers to a gathering of tribal leaders in order to discuss important matters, share resources, and collaborate ideas.  This word is at the heart of our mission: to unite different people groups (i.e. tribes) across West Central, Spokane, and the World...one cup at a time.
