Eco Delight, Coffee's roots, trace back six generations to Guillermo Moran's ancestors in Ahuachapan, El Salvador; as coffee growers supplying green beans, they were subject to typical swings in the prices of raw materials in the commodities market. To help stabilize exposure to market swings, Guillermo's grandfather Jose decided to add value to their product by starting a small coffee roasting facility to supply the local market.
In 2011 the time was right to pursue the dream of Eco Delight Coffee to provide genuinely great coffees that are farm direct to markets in the United States and have an intimate relationship with the growers that would benefit all parties, from the pickers and their families, to the consumers in the U.S.
In 2011 Eco Delight Coffee opened its doors as a coffee roasting company and coffee shop in Suisun City, a small town in Solano County, California. The plan was not to grow as a coffee shop but to allow customers to experience the wide variety of freshly roasted coffees and see that, like wines, coffee has unique qualities that appeal to individual preferences. Word of this new artisan coffee "roaster" spread and drew many customers. Some
from the board rooms of Silicon Valley's most recognized names and the specialty food regions of the North of San Francisco bay area came to be strong proponents of Eco Delight Coffee. Our coffees are found now in Ethnic and specialty coffee shops in the bay area with "simpatico" business philosophies of high quality and care for employees and the environment.
In 2021 we moved our roasting plant to Elk Grove in South Sacramento County. We are located at 9731 Dino Drive, Suite 130, Elk Grove, CA 95624
We offer our customers coffee tastings and a factory outlet for our coffee bags that customers can purchase.
