About Me:
a restautanteur at heart I found myself in the coffee business and have never looked back. working in retail, construction and much more.....jack of all trades master of none. it's been an exciting learning experience.
About My Company:
Kaldi’s was started in 1994 by Howard Lerner and Suzanne Langlois, who opened up the Kaldi’s Coffeehouse in DeMun as one of St.Louis's first independent coffeehouses. They roasted their own coffee beans for the shop, and set up Kaldi’s Coffee Roasting Company to wholesale their coffee to other specialty retailers, eventually selling Kaldi’s coffee and an array of espresso bar products to more than 300 customers (restaurants, markets, cinemas, universities, offices) in the Midwest.
Kaldi’s specializes in organic and Fair Trade coffees, and uses traditional small-batch roasting techniques. Kaldi’s roasting facility is located in mid-town St. Louis. In addition to wholesaling coffees, Kaldi’s also distributes a full line of espresso bar products, such as drinking chocolates, hot teas, iced teas, blended frozen drink mixes, smoothie bases, bubble tea supplies, and paper products. Kaldi’s coffee is certified organic and Kosher.
What is your favorite thing about the coffee industry?

Hey Josh. I am flying to St. Louis to judge part of the competition from Milwaukee and am hoping you can give me your opinion. I found the Huck Finn Hostel and am thinking of staying there but read some concerning reviews. Do you know anything about this hostel? As a solo traveling female do you think this hostel is appropriate for me to stay at? Thanks in advance for taking the time to respond to me. All the best, Shannon
