About Us
Coffee on Raiford opened its doors in 2019 when many businesses were struggling to stay afloat, and thanks to early support from its customers, this coffee shop blossomed into the great local gathering place it is today. Selma was in need of a place that could bring the community together, and the owners, sister and brother, Zena and Jeffery, brought that dream to reality. They were both born and grew up in Johnston County with the beliefs of having a strong work ethic, high morals, and to give when you can. This solid base has led Coffee on Raiford to be very successful in creating a family-oriented establishment that welcomes you, offers consistently good products, and will have you leave with a smile on your face.
Zena Rose is the owner, operator, and barista for Coffee on Raiford making all your favorite drinks. She spent 40 years as a self-employed paint contractor before retiring, but always dreamed of opening her own business selling coffee.
Jeffery Hamilton is in charge of maintenance, marketing, and bookkeeping. He works at The Rudy Theatre, just one block away from Coffee on Raiford, after spending 37 years at the Raleigh News & Observer. Most days you will find Jeffery out promoting Selma as the great place it is to visit, live, and grow a business in, as he has always been doing the past several years.
