Farmer Bros. Co. is a leading manufacturer, wholesaler and distributor of coffee, tea and culinary products. Our product lines and services are specifically focused on the needs of our customers: foodservice establishments including restaurants, hotels, casinos, hospitals and foodservice providers, as well as retailers such as convenience stores, coffee houses, general merchandisers, private label retailers and grocery stores.
To meet our customers' needs we carry hundreds of items including roasted coffee, liquid coffee, coffee related products such as coffee filters, sugar and creamers, assorted teas, cappuccino, cocoa, spices, gelatins and puddings, soup, salad dressings, pancake and biscuit mixes, and jellies and preserves. Approximately 50% of our total sales are from roasted coffee products.
We distribute our products through direct and brokered sales, primarily through our “off-the-truck” distribution network, to our foodservice customers at their places of business. Our signature trucks and vans bearing the “Consistently Good” logo are seen throughout the 48 contiguous United States. Our mission is to “sell great coffee and culinary products and provide superior service one customer at a time.” We also provide private brand specialty coffee programs to retailers through our independent, wholly-owned subsidiary, Coffee Bean International (CBI), one of the nation’s leading specialty coffee roasters.
We purchase, roast and package coffee at our headquarters in Torrance, California and in our Portland, Oregon and Houston, Texas plants, and blend and package spices at our Torrance and Oklahoma City plants. We distribute to our branches nationwide from the Torrance, Houston and Portland plants, and from our distribution centers in Minnesota, Illinois and New Jersey.
