Estate Select Cups Now Available!

Posted by Alex in CDC News | New Product - (0 Comments)

Exciting news: our branded Estate Select cups are now available! These are the same style hot paper cups that we have been selling for years, now available with our Estate Select artwork instead of the generic “envy” design.

Estate Select Coffee Distributing Corp. Paper Hot Cups

4 Sizes Of Paper Cups Now Available With Estate Select Artwork

Estate Select cups are currently available in four sizes: 10 ounce “squat” (ESCUP10), 12 ounce (ESCUP12), 16 ounce (ESCUP16), and 20 ounce (ESCUP20). All four sizes use the same lids: flat (LIDF) or dome (LIDD).

Estate Select cups are just the latest addition to our growing line of Estate Select branded materials. We recently started shipping our coffee (the same, great coffee) in new Estate Select frac packs, started outfitting pod brewers with Estate Select artwork, and made available Estate Select point-of-sale materials such as signs, airpot wraps, and loyalty cards.

Estate Select: Same Great Coffee, Impressive New Packaging

Posted by Alex in About CDC | Coffee | Product Information - (0 Comments)

Just as we’ve done with our private label pod coffee, we are rolling out new artwork for our Estate Select Colombian Supremo ground fractional packs. The coffee is exactly the same — ground from the same beans, roasted at the same local facility, and filled from the same hoppers. We decided that this new film offers a better look. Also, it matches our new Estate Select Point of Sale materials. What do you think?

Estate Select Colombian Supremo Coffee

Estate Select Coffee: Same Great Coffee, Exciting New Look!

To ease the transition, for the next couple of weeks, cases of Colombian Supremo will include a mix of bags in the old and new film.

Biodegradable Eco-Friendly Water Bottles!

Posted by Alex in Environmental Issues | New Product - (2 Comments)

Did you know that in addition to carrying the well-known water brands — such as Aquafina, Dasani, Evian, Fiji, Perrier, Poland Spring and more — Coffee Distributing Corp. also offers a 100% biodegradable option? We already sell approximately 50 cases per week of this new, eco-friendly product line, and it’s growing fast!

Not sure what we’re talking about? Don’t quite believe it? Let us introduce you to TYR Water!

Tyr Biodegradable Water Bottles

The bottle is made out of an all-natural, FDA-approved organic compound. It biodegrades naturally after being discarded (5 year life expectancy after use), without requiring composting. The bottle can even be recycled with regular plastic, so there are no headaches or requirements for special handling. This is a truly green product!

Yes, even the label is eco-friendly. It is made out of 100% post-consumer recycled-paper, and carries a 1 year life expectancy after use. The soy-based ink does not contain any hazardous chemicals.

TYR Water (Order Now: code TYR) is sold in 16.9 oz bottles, 24 per case. The water is natural spring water, originating from an aquifer deep under the Adirondack Mountains.

TYR is a great option for environmentally-conscious offices, as well as for convenience stores that want to offer a unique product to customers who are increasingly looking to “go green” and reduce their carbon footprint. Click to contact us for more information on TYR water!

A TYR Water PDF download is also available.

CDC Sales Rep In The News

Posted by Alex in CDC News - (1 Comments)

Bob Lewent is one of Coffee Distributing Corp’s top sales representatives, with several hundred accounts. He covers a territory that includes all five boroughs of New York City and across Long Island — including Melville, Mineola, Port Washington, Syosset, Valley Stream, and beyond. In the past year, he has been featured several times in Jamie Herzlich’s Small Business features in New York Newsday.

From Keeping Sales Pipeline Full Takes Work:

Door Knocking
Robert M. Lewent, a senior account manager for Coffee Distributing Corp., a Garden City Park-based supplier of coffee and office refreshment products, does this regularly. He reads the newspapers to scout new business openings and drops by country clubs and restaurants to introduce himself and leave his card.

“This is the time to get back to the basics,” says Lewent, who also relies on referrals and networking to build his pipeline. “You have to be methodical and reanalyze everything you do.”

Bob was also featured in Upselling, An Easy Way To Improve Sales (both Newsday articles require a subscription to be viewed online).
