The Gaviña family’s coffee story began in 1870 in the mountains of Southern Cuba. After our family’s arrival in Los Angeles in 1963, we carried on a tradition of passion for producing gourmet coffee by founding F. Gaviña & Sons, Inc. in 1967. While our focus has shifted over the years from cultivation to coffee roasting and wholesale distribution, the end goal has remained the same: creating fine coffee—and doing it the right way from bean to cup.
As a minority-owned, family-run business, our company provides more than 300 jobs within the Los Angeles area. In addition to this, our importing, packaging, printing and other business activities contribute to the local economy by supporting our suppliers and partners. Our ethical coffee sourcing practices also help improve the lives of local communities in the best coffee growing regions. We do all of this because we want to share our best coffee with our customers. We thank you wholeheartedly for your support in making our company what it is today.
