Behind every bag of our coffee is a team whose commitment has made this growth possible.
Amazon recently featured The Bean Coffee Company, part of San Diego Coffee, Tea & Spice, Inc., and our journey toward nearly $3 million in annual Amazon sales.

The credit starts with the people who show up every day to roast, package, ship, support our customers, and keep this business moving.
Some of our team members have been with us for more than three decades. Their experience, care, and pride in their work are the foundation of what we’ve built. Without them, this growth would not be possible.
Amazon has been essential to that growth, too. Its fulfillment network and seller tools have helped our small team reach customers across the country while continuing to focus on our coffee and the people behind it.
I’m very grateful for Amazon’s leadership and the teams they’ve built who listen to sellers, seek our feedback, and create opportunities for small businesses.
Through Sellers in Your Community, External Relations, Public Policy, Storytelling, and more, that support has extended beyond selling coffee. From connecting with fellow entrepreneurs locally to speaking with legislators in Sacramento and Washington, D.C., I’ve had opportunities to share what running a small business really looks like and represent the people whose work makes ours possible.
A special thank-you to Rose Smith and the storytelling team for helping share our story.
And to Daniel O'Connor, Natalie Angelillo, Jonathan Friebert, MPA, Rob Haralson, Peter Kearns, Kaitlyn Hill, Shaina Ross, Katelyn Moga Gesing, and so many others across Amazon: thank you for your friendship, for listening, and for opening doors that have helped our small business grow and given us a voice.
To our team and our customers: thank you for making it a story worth telling.
When you buy from a small business on Amazon, you’re supporting people, their families, and their communities. We’re grateful to be one of those businesses.
