Our Company
InterAmerican Coffee
Since 1983, InterAmerican has been supplying specialty green coffee to roasters across North America.
Through our more than 50 sister companies in 26 countries, as well as through old and new relationships that we consistently seek out, nurture and forge, we source and import some of the world’s best coffees. These include certified Organic, Fair Trade and Rainforest Alliance coffees, quality and price options from traceable blend components to unique small-lot offerings, and coffees through special projects designed to improve both cup quality and the lives and futures of coffee growers and producers.
We have Trade teams and Quality Control labs in Hoboken, N.J.; Providence, Houston and San Diego, and they include more than a dozen certified Q Graders. And proudly, we’re part of the Neumann Kaffee Gruppe (NKG)—the world’s leading green coffee company—which gives us access to numerous other quality-control labs and on-the-ground experts around the globe.
NKG’s global strength and breadth help us to consistently acquire the coffees our customers love—and to keep discovering beautiful new ones. Our decades of experience have refined and strengthened our logistics operations. And the expertise and passion our teams bring to work each day help us to positively impact the supply chain, both locally and globally. Together, these factors make for a company we couldn’t be prouder of.
We invite you to cup with us, train with us and explore with us. And to share how we can help you to keep growing along with us.
