Buying wholesale coffee in Franklin: how to start
- Email or call for a wholesale sheet. Every roaster above supplies businesses; ask for current per-pound pricing, volume tiers, and order minimums. Minimums are usually lower than you'd guess — small cafés and offices are the core of local wholesale.
- Ask for a tasting. Most roasters will send samples or host a cupping (a structured side-by-side tasting) at the roastery. Taste Frothy Monkey and The Coffee House at Second and Bridge against each other, brewed the way you'll actually serve — the differences show up fast.
- Ask what comes with the account. Barista training, espresso dial-in help, brewing-equipment guidance, and sometimes equipment loan programs ride along with a supply commitment. Support is where local roasters beat distributors, so weigh it alongside price.
- Set a delivery cadence that keeps you fresh. Local accounts in Franklin typically get weekly or biweekly delivery or pickup, which keeps your beans inside the peak-flavor window (roughly the first month after roasting). Order what you'll use, not what fits the shelf — the storage guide explains why.
- Ask about private label. If you want your own name on retail bags at the register, most roasters can roast and bag under your brand at higher minimums. Details in our wholesale buying guide.
