Our Story

1995

Royal Coffee New York started in Staten Island, New York. The initial team was just three people in a small office (…whoops, we mean trailer!).

Under the initial guidance of Royal Coffee Inc. in California, Royal Coffee New York continued to grow, eventually moving into a larger office (…whoops, we mean larger trailer!), to accommodate additional staff.

2014

Royal Coffee New York moved its headquarters to a larger office (…we really mean office this time!) connected to the Royal New York warehouse in South Plainfield, New Jersey.

The entirely solar powered facility and natural gas powered forklifts ensure the company’s operations are clean and energy efficient.

2015

Royal New York turns 20 years old!

The Lab by RNY was founded to provide an education and training space for the specialty coffee industry.

It began by offering barista-focused and coffee roasting classes on site at the Royal Coffee New York headquarters.

2016

Royal Tea New York was founded to allow customers the opportunity to provide a wider selection of specialty offerings without sacrificing quality.

The Lab by RNY moved into the Royal New York Annex, directly across the street from our headquarters. By making this move, The Lab drastically expanded its space and capabilities, better catering to the specialty coffee and tea industry and becoming a certified SCA Premier Campus.

2022

Royal New York launches the Royal NY Line Up!

The Royal NY Line Up is a rotating assortment of the most unique, high scoring lots of specialty green coffee. Best part about the Royal NY Line Up? It’s delivered in approachable quantities—22lb. boxes!
