Our Journey

FRC CEO and Founder Andy Oakes at a coffee farm in Hawaii.

Fresh Roasted Coffee's commitment to great coffee begins at origin. We source coffees that make a difference—in the lives of the farmers who harvest and process them, the communities in which they grow, and for the planet.

For The Body

Our USDA Organic and OU Kosher certifications ensure your coffee is consistently regulated at each stage of the production process and is completely free of GMOs and harmful synthetics. Water processed decaf and half-caf selections guarantee your coffee is free of chemicals, while maintaining impeccable flavor and body.

For The Soul

We proudly roast and actively seek out Direct Trade and Fair Trade certified coffee. For every pound of Direct Trade or Fair Trade coffee we purchase, our growers and farmers are rewarded with vital premiums that help their communities flourish.

For The Planet

We stand our ground to fight the detrimental environmental and social practices that unfortunately plague our industry. We offer Rainforest Alliance certified coffees that were grown and harvested in a way that is synergistic to the protection and growth of local economies, environments, and social groups.
