Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. Extends Agreement with McDonald's to Offer Newman's Own Organics Coffee in New England & Albany, New York
Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMCR) has extended its agreement with McDonald's USA, LLC to source, roast and package Newman's Own(R) Organics Blend coffee for more than 600 McDonald's restaurants in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine and Albany, NY.
McDonald's first introduced Newman's Own Organics coffee roasted by Green Mountain Coffee, a segment of GMCR, to its restaurants in New England and Albany, NY in October 2005.
Created exclusively for McDonald's, Newman's Own Organics Blend is a combination of light and medium roasts with a smooth body and clean finish. The blend is available in regular and decaffeinated and is served as both hot and iced coffee. McDonald's also offers Newman's Own Organics Blend in three iced coffee flavors in New England and Albany, NY: Hazelnut, Vanilla and Caramel.
'It has been gratifying to see consumers embrace our organic coffee, and we look forward to its continued growth,' says Nell Newman, Co-Founder and President of Newman's Own Organics.
Larry Blanford, President and CEO of Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc., says, 'When we began our relationship with McDonald's in 2005, our goal was to provide the highest quality coffee to customers in New England and Albany, NY. We are excited to continue working with McDonald's to deliver a selection of great tasting coffee products.'
Great tasting products that happen to be organic is the slogan of Newman's Own Organics. Founded by Nell Newman and Peter Meehan, they develop their products from certified organic ingredients. 'We focus on the kinds of products we loved as kids, but take them one step further by using the highest quality of available organic ingredients,' says Nell. Paul Newman and the Newman's Own Foundation have given away over $250 million to thousands of charitable organizations worldwide since 1982.
