On-Demand Guatemala Coffee

A Smarter Supply Chain for Austin Texas Roasters & Coffee Shops

In the traditional coffee supply chain, roasters and coffee shops must purchase large quantities of green or roasted coffee, often months in advance, tying up working capital in inventory that may take weeks or even months to sell. Storage costs, potential spoilage, and fluctuations in demand make this model inefficient and financially burdensome.

Our on-demand coffee model eliminates these challenges by offering a fast, direct, and flexible supply solution, ensuring that roasters and coffee shops get only what they need when they need it—without overstocking or unnecessary financial risk.

How Our On-Demand Coffee Model Works

• Order by Friday, Receive by Wednesday – Roasters and coffee shops can place weekly or biweekly orders based on real-time demand, ensuring a fresh supply without long wait times.
• DHL Express Global Shipping – Our contracted shipping rates allow us to ship up to 3,000 kilos per shipment with 4-day delivery to Austin, TX, and other key markets.
• Ocean Freight & Air Cargo Options – For larger shipments, container shipping is available via ocean freight. A full 20-foot container (approx. 19,000 kilos of coffee) typically takes 4-5 weeks for delivery to major U.S. ports, costing approximately $4,000-$6,000 per container. Air cargo shipments (300+ kilos) offer a 7-day delivery time at a competitive rate of around $3-$4 per kilo.
• No Large Inventory Commitments – Businesses don’t have to store bulk coffee for months, reducing the risk of stale or unsold stock.
• Flexible Order Sizes – Whether you need 12oz retail packs, bulk 50lb bags, or a full shipment, we accommodate orders of all sizes.

The Financial Benefits of On-Demand Guatemala Coffee

• Better Cash Flow Management – Roasters and shops can invest in operations, marketing, or equipment instead of tying up money in coffee inventory.
• Higher Profit Margins – By cutting out middlemen, businesses enjoy up to 40% better margins, increasing overall profitability.
• No Storage Costs – No need to lease additional warehouse space or maintain large stockpiles.
• Lower Risk & More Flexibility – Businesses can quickly adjust their inventory based on changing consumer preferences, seasonal trends, or new offerings.
• Guaranteed Freshness – Roasters and coffee shops receive freshly harvested and roasted coffee, ensuring customers get the best quality every time.

Ethical & Sustainable Sourcing

• Fair Pay for Farmers – Our direct-trade system ensures Mayan-owned farms receive fair compensation, far above industry standards.
• No Bureaucracy or FDA Red Tape – We handle all shipping documentation, customs clearances, and FDA prior notice inspections, allowing retailers and coffee shops to focus on what they do best—serving great coffee.
• Direct Drop-Shipping to Retailers & Roasters – Coffee goes straight from the farm to the roaster/shop, reducing handling, preserving quality, and maintaining full farm-to-cup traceability.
