It is about separating the core and the fun part of your supply. The core needs reliability of prices and quality.

We know it is not easy for coffee roasters.
Choosing a nice place and trying new flavors can be really fun. While increasing prices to clients can be really annoying.
We understand that the entire chain became more complex and the costs became higher.
As such, our model prioritizes stability of prices:
We source from a single origin
We deliver on a single destiny
We keep the same partners
We focus on a small range of specialty coffee, constantly stored in the same warehouse in the Netherlands.
We charge the lowest margin, offering the best price for value in the Netherlands. Always!
As such, coffee roasters that source from Meiero can stabilize around 80% of its costs.
Then, they can have a lot of fun sourcing from exotic places and marketing new flavors.
We believe it can reduce much of your friction.
Your life will be much better.
It is only possible because we are producers.
