“We’ve been roasting coffee since 1919, and we believe the Keurig brewing system allows consumers to enjoy an excellent cup of Van Houtte coffee. Not only is Keurig growing at a fast pace in the office coffee market, but being the largest Keurig distributor in North America, we believe the entry into the home market presents tremendous growth potential for both companies. It will allow Van Houtte to offer its fine gourmet coffee to more consumers in North America.” -Jean-Yves Monette, President & CEO, Van Houtte Inc.
