Co-operative Coffee, making your day better!
September 30, 2020

From the first smell of coffee brewing in the morning to the last sip with dessert, we know that a good cup of coffee is an important part of your day. Treat yourself to a premium cup of Co-operative coffee from Red River Co-op. Whether it’s grocery store, gas bar or convenience store, Red River Co-op is excited to be brewing up something delicious with their new Co-operative Coffee.

Co-operative coffee is ethically and sustainably sourced and roasted right here in Canada. The 10 varieties are sourced from around the world, Central America, South America, Africa and Asia ranging from light roasts to dark.

Co-operative Coffee is available in bags of whole beans or ground coffee and in compostable pods, so you can choose the best way to prepare your brew at home. Additionally, if you’re in a hurry you can grab the same delicious cup of coffee to go from our gas bars, delis and convenience stores!

Our coffee isn’t co-operative in name only. It's a collaboration between Co-op, our B.C.-based master roaster who perfects the blends and our suppliers from around the world. Working together, we’re providing the beans for you to make a quality cup in your home. Co-op believes in co-operation amongst co-operatives. Our Peruvian organic and fair trade coffees are sourced from the Monte Verde Café Association, a co-operative of about 800 small farms deep in the Amazon, in the Rodriguez de Mendoza province. This co-operative helps farmers improve the quality of the coffee through specialized training on growing and harvesting processes.


Our master roaster is also one of 3,500 ‘Q graders’ in the world. Certified by the Coffee Quality Institute, our roaster selects the best quality beans, looking for factors such as acidity, body, flavour and balance, and roasts them to perfection in small batches.
