the bean cartel does things differently.
COFFEE SUPPLIER. COFFEE ROASTER. SICK FOR SOME ARTWORK. EDGY... BUT WITH A WHOLE LOTTA HEART.
Ready for our unpopular opinion that will make coffee suppliers and coffee roasters cringe?
It's not just about the beans. It's not just about coffee, or coffee products.
(Oooft. Controversial!)
We’re hospo people from way back. And damn… don’t we know this life can be tough.
Meet the El Jefes
We’re Stacy and Ali. We’ve owned food and bev establishments for close to 20 years.
But the sweet elixir of life (mmm coffee) was always our one and only. So we went all in and moved the fam from Adelaide to Melbourne to shake up the coffee scene.
I guess we’re a little bit loco?
Are you a little loco for coffee too?
Yeah. We independently source the best beans from around the world.
We taste them.
Choose the top shelf.
Roast them.
Whack 'em in bags with sick artwork by a Colombian artisit.
Supply them to you.
But we do support, training and community just as well.
The Bean Cartel was born out of an undeniable pull towards shaking up the coffee scene status quo.
We're a coffee supplier and coffee roasting company in Melbourne that doesn’t accept second best… and doesn’t give it either.
With Cartel-like tenacity and unshakable high standards of what we'll accept for our customers we control the process from farm to cup, so there are no what ifs.
The buck stops with us.
