Our story

JA Coffee

Founded in 2018, we are a North American coffee importer supplying exceptional green coffees—from iconic Jamaica Blue Mountain to traceable specialty lots—to roasters across the United States and Canada.

Founded in 2018 by Félix-William Trépanier, JA Coffee began with a focused project centered on sourcing authentic Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee and building long-term relationships at origin. What started as a single-origin effort has since grown into a broader mission: connecting coffee roasters with traceable, high-quality green coffee from across the globe.

Today, JA Coffee is led by its founding shareholder and supported by a small group of partners with deep experience across the coffee supply chain. Working closely with partners in Colombia, Costa Rica, and Jamaica, the team builds direct trade relationships with producers to source specialty-grade green coffee rooted in quality, transparency, and consistency.

We import and distribute wholesale green coffee to roasters across North America, offering:

- Single-origin and microlot specialty green coffees
- Fully traceable, responsibly sourced lots
- Flexible wholesale volumes and competitive pricing
- Reliable, roaster-focused service and support

To better support roasters in the United States, JA Coffee also operates through a dedicated U.S. entity, allowing us to streamline logistics, pricing, and service for customers on both sides of the border.

We’re a hands-on team that cares about doing things right—at origin, in transit, and all the way to the roastery. Our goal is simple: to bring in great coffee and build lasting, long-term relationships with the people who roast it.

Responsible Sourcing, Reliable Green Coffee

We source and import specialty green coffee with a focus on consistency, traceability, and long-term partnerships at origin. Working directly with farms and cooperatives allows us to offer coffees that are not only responsibly sourced, but also reliable and well suited for professional roasting.

Our direct trade approach gives roasters better visibility into how each coffee is produced, while ensuring stable quality, repeatability, and clear lot information. By prioritizing transparency and responsible practices at origin, we’re able to supply wholesale green coffee that performs predictably in the roastery and supports long-term buying programs.
