High-end coffee production company Ninety Plus has secured an exclusive distribution agreement with Arizona-based Coffee Support, a specialist in business-to-business coffee services. The partnership, announced on Monday, will see Coffee Support introduce a selection of Ninety Plus’s green coffee offerings starting in November, though specific terms of the agreement remain undisclosed.
Founded in 2006 by Wisconsin native Joseph Brodsky in Ethiopia, Ninety Plus expanded to Western Panama a year later, where it now manages over 1,000 hectares of coffee production. The company has played a significant role in popularizing the premium Gesha-variety coffee from Panama, supplying beans to numerous barista champions and conducting nano-lot auctions that have fetched record prices.
“Coffee Support is among the best coffee roasting, packing, and logistics operations I’ve seen,” Brodsky stated in a press release. “It is the perfect partnership to deliver to and support fans of Ninety Plus in the United States.”
Jason Kyle, CEO and owner of Coffee Support, is also a co-owner of Phoenix-based Press Coffee Roasters, which recently acquired a 70-hectare coffee farm in Western Panama. A former NFL player, Kyle launched Coffee Support in 2020 and established a 4,000-square-foot roastery and production center in Phoenix, specializing in cold brewing and co-packing.
Coffee Support has built a reputation for sourcing green coffee for business-to-business roasting clients and is currently accepting inquiries regarding Ninety Plus products through its website.
“We are thrilled to represent and distribute Ninety Plus, one of the world’s leading specialty coffee companies that has been transforming the industry since its inception,” Kyle said in a statement shared by Ninety Plus. “Ninety Plus cultivates coffees that move you — creating flavorful and memorable experiences.”
