NEW YORK — Oval Coffee Roasters today announced a new retail partnership with Kings Food Markets and Balducci’s Food Lover’s Market, supported by Whisha Specialty Coffee Distributors.
The launch brings Oval’s whole-bean specialty coffee to a curated selection of stores across Long Island, Westchester County, New York City, New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, Washington, D.C., and surrounding markets.
Roasted in Hunts Point, The Bronx, Oval’s coffees are produced locally in New York City and developed for shoppers seeking distinctive, high-quality coffee with clear and approachable product profiles.
Kings Food Markets and Balducci’s Food Lover’s Market are part of Albertsons Companies, one of the largest food and drug retailers in the United States. Albertsons Companies operates a national portfolio of grocery banners serving millions of customers through more than 2,200 stores nationwide.
“This partnership allows us to establish and solidify Oval Coffee Roasters’ position within the specialty grocery channel,” said Andrew Itzkowitz, Managing Director of Oval Coffee Roasters. “We have grown through independent and natural food networks, including INFRA and National Co+op Grocers, as well as through premium retailers such as DeCicco & Sons, Clark’s Market, and other best-in-class independent grocers like Happier Grocery. Those early retail partners helped create the foundation for this next stage of growth.”
“We are proud to roast in Hunts Point and share our coffees with a wider audience of intentional customers who are looking for premium products, knowledge, and memorable ritual experiences,” said Christopher Alspach, Co-Founder of Oval Coffee Roasters.
Whisha Specialty Coffee Distributors is supporting the launch and helping bring Oval Coffee Roasters into these specialty grocery channels.
Oval Coffee Roasters is honored to join Kings Food Markets and Balducci’s Food Lover’s Market, two respected specialty grocery banners known for their curated selections across fresh foods, gourmet groceries, prepared foods, beverages, and other premium categories.
