July 21, 2023
Aramark has reached a multi-year agreement with BLK & Bold Specialty Beverages.
The deal calls for Aramark to offer BLK & Bold’s lineup of hot and cold coffee products to clients of its Aramark Refreshment division. Des Moines, Iowa-based BLK & Bold is the first Black-owned nationally distributed coffee brand in the United States.
“Aramark Refreshments provides more than beverages and curated coffee services; we offer inspired break experiences that foster an inclusive office environment and create a sense of community,” said Patrick Liebler, Aramark Refreshments president. “As part of our organization’s diverse supplier strategy, we’re developing with companies who exemplify inclusion and community and share in our mission to curate office spaces where employees can recharge with a quick snack and enjoy meaningful moments. BLK & Bold is a great fit, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to add them to our portfolio and offer their products to our clients.”
