Torque Coffees is a specialty roastery and café based in San Diego, California, founded by Nanelle & Andy Newbom, two devoted coffee professionals with over two decades of experience across nearly every sector of the industry.
Their mission is bold and crystal clear: craft super-sweet coffees from some of the world’s best producers, and ensure those producers receive an equitable 20% share of every coffee sold.
About Torque Coffees: Radical Equity Meets Sweet Flavor
Through their innovative Proportional Pricing system, Torque guarantees that at least 20% of every coffee’s retail price stays in the country of origin. No charity models, no vague promises, just fairness and transparency built directly into the business.
“Our goal is to break the coffee supply chain. Break it by torquing the value balance.”
The $400 billion global coffee industry currently leaves farmers with crumbs, only about 5% of that value remains where coffee is grown. Torque is rewriting this story. By flipping the supply chain, they’ve created a radical, transparent system where both producers and consumers know exactly how much equity returns to origin.
Torque Cafe Operations
Torque doesn’t just innovate in sourcing and roasting, they also lead the way in running their café. That’s why they use Dripos to power their San Diego operations. They believe that running a coffee business should be simpler, smarter, and more sustainable.
