Kiva Han Coffee Looks to the Web for Growth

Pittsburgh, PA, May 03, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Coffee roaster and distributor, Kiva Han, has partnered with Integra Marketing Group (IMG) to make its move online to provide start-up cafés with an all-in-one distribution website that seeks to give customers a one-stop location to purchase anything and everything to run a coffee shop. The website is set to be launched and announced June 8th, 2012 at Coffee Fest in Chicago.

The website will serve as a starting point to begin moving Kiva Han into a more dominant role for online sales and distribution of coffee-related products. The idea behind the site is to provide independent coffee store owners with everything they need to be able to succeed and compete in today’s market. The website will be able to provide everyday necessities such as equipment, cups, and coffee; but it will also feature marketing items for promotions, packaging, barista training, and store design. The new website will also feature a blog that focuses on the independent coffee trade, sales, and marketing to provide even more vital information to these companies.

Ed Wethli, Chuck Verrett, and Tim Albanese, respective owners and presidents of Kiva Han, IMG, and Café Distributors came to this conclusion after several months of working together and gathering research on the current state of the coffee industry. The trio feels that this is a perfect opportunity for Kiva Han to move into territory that can greatly leverage the company.
