Hi Shannon,
I believe that we have a local business organization in Washington
similiar to your company. I work closely with them when I have a customer
who is new to the coffee business and needs some guidance. I am enclosing
their info incase you wish to check them out. In Seattle, they have been a big
help to me and my customers. You perform an excellent service.

Hi Shannon,

Welcome to the neighborhood. My name is Dustin, and I import/retail civet coffee, aka "kopi luwak," the rarest coffee in the world. There are all kinds of groups you can join within this page, I would suggest joining a couple of them and you can get to know some more people in the coffee scene. Anyways, check out my company's website, I started it as a project when I was in the Peace Corps.
