Carmela Foods is brewing something big. Our new Coffee & Tea Selection catalog brings every roast, blend, and brewable option under one roof—crafted for the way grocers, restaurants, hotels, country clubs, and food markets really serve their guests. From Detroit city mornings to lakefront brunch service, this collection is built to keep your beverage program fresh, profitable, and on-trend.

Looking for a local story to tell on menu and shelf tags? The catalog features beloved Midwest roasters such as Great Lakes, Ferris, Sparrows, Higher Grounds, Kalamazoo Coffee, Littlefoot, Rowster, Truck Stop Organics, Zingerman’s and more—each with tasting notes and key callouts for staff training and signage.

These partners bring everything from approachable house blends to single-origin standouts, so you can dial in a program that fits your brand—whether that’s a resort brunch buffet, an upscale steakhouse, or a neighborhood market coffee bar.

From espresso programs to self-serve urns, from tea service to RTD coolers, Carmela Foods makes it easy to build a layered, story-driven beverage lineup that keeps guests coming back for “one more cup.”
