Services that will help you grow with us as a partner

Authenticity, Transparency, and Shared experiences

Timbertrain coffee was built on a dream of bringing people together through a passion for crafting quality specialty coffee. We recognized that people gather and share experiences over cups of coffee because a culture rooted in community, education, and experience is present. These experiences occur in hotels, restaurants, and cafes where people meet and create memories with one another. We wanted to merge our love for coffee and people by being part of those significant moments of bonding. We know that you share that same value of creating that sense of community in your space as well. This is why we are pleased to offer wholesale options for hotel, restaurant, and cafe owners and the opportunity to provide their valued patrons with locally roasted coffee beans.

Purchasing wholesale coffee beans is favourable for any business owner looking to serve coffee in their establishment because it offers the best value on retail price. We work with our wholesale clients individually to ensure the coffee we provide for them is the right fit for their business. There is much that goes into a skillfully crafted process of handling, preparing, and sourcing coffee. From machinery to sourcing, there is a lot of love that goes into manufacturing coffee and it would be our honour to be your local wholesale coffee supplier here in Vancouver, B.C.

Since our inception, the Timbertrain team has been committed to researching, finding, and sourcing from quality farms around the world. Once the beans have been carefully selected for their grade and high farming ethos, they are shipped to Vancouver and expertly roasted in-house at our dedicated roasting facility in North Vancouver. Sustainability is our priority. It is Timbertrain’s pleasure to closely monitor the rigorous process that coffee takes – from ethically sourcing exceptional beans and hand roasting them in-house – and sharing them with you.
