Sustainability is in Farmer Brothers' DNA

Farmer Brothers is a manufacturer, wholesaler and distributor of coffee products and a distributor of tea and culinary products to foodservice establishments and retailers nationwide. The company sells approximately 2,700 products (excluding private label), including roasted coffee; liquid coffee; coffee-related products, such as coffee filters; sugar and creamers; assorted teas; cappuccino; cocoa; spices; gelatins and puddings; soups; salad dressings; pancake and biscuit mixes; and jellies and preserves. Approximately 50 percent of its total sales are from roasted coffee products. 

“Sustainability is really in the DNA of our company,” states Daniël Gerritsen, director of engineering and operations strategy for Farmer Brothers. He says one of Farmer Brothers’ priorities is to collaborate with its farmers to improve existing processes. In keeping with its planet-friendly credo, the headquarters campus construction incorporated recycled materials, energy-efficient lighting and HVAC, and reflective paving of roof materials to reduce cooling load.
