Feel the Power of Partnership
Operating a café presents plenty of challenges. Crafting the perfect cup of coffee should be the least of your worries. Consider us your expert companion through the journey.
Excellence in coffee service doesn’t happen by accident. Balancing the daily demands of a café, restaurant, or hotel is hard enough without constantly worrying about consistency, training, and service standards.
Are you getting the support you need from your current supplier? You deserve a wholesale coffee partner who sweats the details. Drawing on two decades in hospitality, we built our program around what operators actually need.

Who We Serve
Running a café or bakery is hard. With decades of experience operating multi-unit cafés, we’ve seen it all—and we build programs that work in the real world.
We treat wholesale partners as an extension of Ithaca Coffee Company, supporting both legacy cafés and brand-new ventures from day one.
We’ve sold successfully in local and regional groceries for nearly 20 years—supporting independent retailers and major chains.
Sustainability matters. As a USDA Certified Organic roaster, we offer a wide selection of 100% organic coffees, plus specialty canned coffees with standout shelf appeal in fully recyclable packaging.
Don’t let weak coffee spoil excellent food. From dependable house blends to espresso for the morning rush, we’ll help you serve coffee your guests remember.
Fresh, locally roasted coffee delivered on a schedule that keeps your team stocked. We can build a plan for small or large offices.
Don’t let bad coffee drag down morale—your workplace deserves better.
Looking for a top-notch coffee provider for guests? We’ll help you build a consistent, premium hotel coffee experience—on brand and on budget.
Equipment consulting, custom co-branding/private label options, barista training, and nitro cold brew support—built to help you level up fast.
Equipment Consulting
Choosing the right equipment is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make—whether you’re opening a new café, replacing aging gear, or redesigning workflow to improve speed and ergonomics.
We can tailor an equipment package scaled to your business and staffing, and help procure new equipment. We offer competitive pricing through our partners La Marzocco, Mazzer, and FETCO.
Barista Training
Great coffee and great equipment are two sides of the triangle of specialty coffee. The third is a well-trained, hospitable team. We’ve trained baristas and barista trainers for wholesale partners for over two decades.
Our training focuses on “train the trainer,” so your team can scale quality across shifts.
- Espresso theory, milk fundamentals, and workflow consistency
- Cupping basics and coffee language for confident guest interactions
- Hands-on coaching in our training café, with feedback you can implement immediately
Small-group training ensures your staff gets enough hands-on time to build real confidence, and gives your lead baristas the tools to coach others.
Nitro Cold Brew
Nitro cold brew is cold-brewed coffee served with pure nitrogen. The infusion creates a rich, silky mouthfeel and a beautiful cascading pour, reminiscent of a well-poured pint of Guinness.
Why operators love nitro:
- Velvety texture and naturally sweet finish
- Eye-catching presentation that sells itself
- Nitrogen helps reduce oxidation—keeping flavor fresher longer
- Our kegged nitro can maintain peak quality for up to 2 months
Many bars, restaurants, and cafés already have much of the equipment needed. If you’re unsure, we can start with a nitro equipment consultation.
