Cafe 1820 coffee from Costa Rica - How our Costa Rica Coffee Club got started?

In 2003, we started importing and selling 1820 coffee online wholesale.  We slowly worked small wholesale orders. I created a very simple 3 page website that just had a quick summary about 1820 Costa Rica coffee. We carry all sizes and quantity. 

One day I received a customer  call asking if we sell a bag of 1820 coffee directly to the public.  I had really not thought about it, but happily agreed to sell a bag of 1820

Coffee.  I never forgot how excited he was.  It brought a smile to my face.  And I like smiles.  A week later, my same  customer called me back to thank me for the coffee and to arrange a bag to be sent every month.  To my surprise, this was the start of our Costa Rican Coffee Club.  It is not a fancy sophisticated club,but one that filled a need for my customers.  To ensure we provided the best freshest coffee,we have weekly shipments from Costa Rica to our Store.  We do not keep a lot on our shelves.  When I am asked, “Why?”  I respond, “What good does it do sitting on a shelf?” I love the smell Of coffee when you open your just arrived Costa Rican Store shipment.  It you place one time order with us, you may have to wait a couple days longer for the next incoming shipment to arrive from Costa Rica.  But I would rather that then receive a product that has been sitting on a shelf collecting dust. But if you are a club member, you coffee arrives fresh from Costa Rica and ships out the first week of each month. And our customers tell us they smile and take a deep breath in to smell the coffee when their club box arrives. 

Why is it better to buy from Costa Rican Store directly?  You will receive one to one customer service from a USA company with USA employees. When you place your first order, you receive Welcome emails and text. We would love to call Our customers, but we know you are busy. We are happy to talk if you are like me and like to talk to a real person just to confirm your order. Send us a text at 866.698.4267 and you will receive the quickest reply to schedule a time to talk.    Our prices are competitive.  And we offer special discounts that we can not on Amazon and Walmart. Yes, you read correctly. Our Costa Rican products are on Walmart and Amazon.  And orders placed by seller “Costa Rican Store” are shipped with the same great fresh quality standards we give our customers.  So if you love our coffee when you open your bag of coffee, you will love opening your Costa Rican Store Club shipment that smells just like you opened the coffee bag.  

If monthly is to often to receive coffee, don’t  stress. We offer bi-monthly, quarterly and 6 months club shipments. So if you are on a budget or a slow coffee drinker we have the right club for you with the still great fresh smell of coffee arriving at your doorstep.

So what ever happen to that first coffee club member that started my passion to provide fresh coffee to my amazing customers?  I am happy to say, he is still a Coffee club member after 15 years.  You can bet his club orders receive customer appreciation gifts just like our other club customers. I love talking about our customers.  Isn’t funny how this blog started out about 1820 coffee  and Ended up talking more about our great customers. You will find that out about me.    We just appreciate all of you for having faith and loyalty with Costa Rican Store.
