About Us

COROCO Coffee Roaster Collective was built around the simple idea that better coffee starts with better relationships. We roast in small batches, source intentionally, and work with cafés, restaurants, offices, and businesses that care about serving coffee with character.

Meet Karen Weckerly

COROCO Coffee is led by Karen Weckerly, owner, roaster, and licensed Q Grader. She brings hands-on experience to every part of the wholesale program, from sourcing and roasting to helping businesses choose coffees that fit their menu, customers, and daily workflow.

As a Q Grader, Karen has advanced training in evaluating coffee quality, flavor, consistency, and defects. For wholesale partners, that means your coffee is backed by more than a label. It is backed by real sensory training and a commitment to consistency.

Wholesale coffee should be easy to order, consistent to serve, and good enough that customers notice.

Whether you serve espresso, drip, decaf, or cold brew, COROCO keeps wholesale simple with fresh roasted coffee, practical guidance, and a partner who understands the pace of service.
