    Default job background
    Description

    You are here: / Jobs / Barista **About Royal Coffee, Inc.**

    Royal Coffee is a family-owned and operated importer of specialty green coffees, serving the international roasting community. Founded in 1978 by Bob Fulmer and Pete McLaughlin in a tiny office on Hollis St., we began with the purchase of a single bag of coffee that Bob and Pete used as a desk until they found a buyer for it. They turned the proceeds of the first sale into two more bags, and the rest is history.

    We import the finest coffees in the world, from over 30 countries of origin and a vast network of producing partners. From warehouses in Oakland, Seattle, Madison, Houston and Shanghai, Royal supplies some of the top roasting houses around the globe. Our humble roots continue to inform our day to day operations though, as many of our clients get their start with us buying a single bag of coffee.

    Whether our customers are looking for a single, high-end, exclusive 22lb Crown Jewel box, a pallet or two of individual selections from our extensive Offering Sheet, or a forward spread on multiple container loads drop-shipped to any port in the world, Royals trading and logistics are here to help.
