The Supreme Bean Coffee Roasters of North Hollywood, California has acquired Rocky Roaster, LLC, a wholesale coffee roasting business based in Canoga Park, California. Rocky Roaster Founder Mr. Rocky Rhodes will join The Supreme Bean team to manage the Rocky Roaster brand of coffee for the organization and maintain its website.

“Rocky and I have been friendly competitors for the last twelve years, over which time I have learned to respect his talents. I look forward to having him on our team,” said Jeff Chean, Principal of The Supreme Bean Coffee Roasters.

“It just makes so much sense to join forces, combine talents and reduce overhead,” said Rhodes. “With the resources, personnel and operating efficiencies gained by joining The Supreme Bean, we can dramatically grow the Rocky Roaster brand through our wholesale and Internet sales channels, while maintaining our signature flavor profile and high quality standards.”

Wholesale operations of two companies will be combined later this month.
