New England Coffee Company is New England’s largest[1] independent specialty coffee roaster. Founded in 1916[2] by Menelaos Kaloyanides, George Kaloyanides and Megaklis Papadopoulos in Boston, New England Coffee Company is currently owned and operated by a third generation of the Kaloyanides and Dostou families.
New England Coffee was noted Massachusetts family business of the year in 2007 [3]
Company History[edit]
Menelaos, George and Megaklis started New England Coffee in a building at the corner of Milk and Broad Streets in Boston, where hand-roasted coffee was delivered by horse and wagon. The first truck was purchased in 1918, when other family members started to join the business.
In 1966, after outgrowing several homes in succession, New England Coffee finally settled into their present location at 100 Charles Street in Malden, Massachusetts. Today, New England Coffee occupies five buildings and has hugely expanded their manufacturing and packaging capabilities.
While they have grown into a much larger coffee roasting operation since their founding, their philosophy still remains the same – to buy and sell premium coffee and provide quality service. New England Coffee only uses 100% Arabica beans in all of their products. New England Coffee offers coffee blends, flavored coffees, full-bodied dark roasts and blends from locations such as Colombia, Sumatra and Costa Rica.
