Whatcha Know Joe Coffee Co.

Ken Olson, Owner....Eric Branson, Roaster


In the beginning we were selling our fresh roasted coffee every Sunday at the Yakima Farmer's Market.. We had a table lined with air-pots full of 'Broadway Joe', 'Frank Sumatra', and 'round Midnight', as free samples and a few 8oz. bags for sale. At first we gave away a lot more samples than we sold bags. But we showed up every week just the same.

About the fourth or fifth Sunday we noticed that our bag sales were picking up and we were having to hustle to keep the air-pots full. More and more people were stopping to sample, ask questions, complement us o­n a blend, and pick up a bag or two.

Our custom-built coffee roasterToday we have our coffee in 21 Supermarkets and Cash & Carry Stores, an ever growing number of espresso stands, restaurants and shops, and available world-wide from our o­nline Store.
