To focus more intently on the RTD coffee business, as well as to launch a new independent coffee consultancy called Up & Up, Mehrens, Cunningham and Stewart have all stepped out of their ownership positions at Steadfast. “We left operations in the capable hands of Dustin Thomas and Robbie Melton and wish them nothing but the best,” Mehrens told Daily Coffee News. Currently those are the characteristics are of a 60/40 blend of coffee from Finca La Bolsa, Guatemala, and Tarime, Tanzania. So far this has meant mostly Guatemalan and Ethiopian coffees,” Mehrens told Daily Coffee News, noting that the makeup is liable to change over time. Said Mehrens, “We’re hoping to solidify some key partnerships soon that will bring Matchless to the rest of the Southeast and a few other major cities as early as next year.”
