YGYI’s wholly owned subsidiary, CLR Roasters, is helping to redefine the farm-to-cup sector of the green coffee industry with an innovative mindset focused on direct sourcing and quality control. By concentrating on owning all aspects of the coffee lifecycle–from growing to processing to sales–CLR Roasters offers unparalleled quality, nimbleness, and efficiency in its business practices. Our groundbreaking January purchase of a 45-acre, state-of-the-art coffee processing facility in Nicaragua increased our company’s production capabilities to 58 million pounds of sustainable coffee annually. With an existing five-year contract to produce 205 million pounds of coffee valued at $250 million, the company’s coffee holdings are already firing on all cylinders and making a large-scale national impact.

CLR Roasters’ presence in the coffee industry is felt via their in-house boutique brands– Café La Rica espresso, Cafe Cachita espresso, and the Josie’s Java House and Javalution single-serve brands. With placement in more than 2,000 retail doors like Bi-Lo and Winn-Dixie nationwide, Café Cachita and Café La Rica are continuing on the tradition of outstanding Cuban espresso in one of the fastest growing niches in the coffee market. Meanwhile, the recent partnership between Amazon Vendor Central and the Café La Rica and Josie’s Java House brands will allow CLR Roaster to sell both brands directly to Amazon’s 300 million monthly users, while Javalution–the first-ever company in the fortified coffee space–will begin selling CBD-infused, single-serve coffee in May of 2019 as a way to merge the rapidly emerging gourmet coffee and CBD markets.
