New England Coffee
New England Coffee is a coffee roaster located in New England. It was founded in Boston, Massachusetts in 1916 by Menelaos and George Kaloyanides. History In 1916, brothers Menelaos and George Kaloyanides, who had immigrated to the United States, from Greece, started the New England Tea & Coffee Company. Originally located in a building at the corner of Milk and Broad Streets in Boston, hand-roasted coffee was once delivered by horse and wagon along the streets of Boston. The first gasoline-powered truck was purchased in 1918, and soon after, other family members started to join the growing business. In 1966, New England Coffee settled into its present location at 100 Charles Street in Malden, Massachusetts. Today, New England Coffee occupies five buildings and has expanded its manufacturing and packaging capabilities. Four generations of the Kaloyanides family have led the business since its inception: Menelaos Kaloyanides (1916-1966); Stephen Kaloyanides (1966-1996); James M. Kaloyanides (1996-2013) and James B. Kaloyanides (2013-2016). The Kaloyanides family has traveled throughout the world's coffee-growing regions; James B. eventually spent over half of a year in Costa Rica. In 2022, James B. rejoined Reily Foods Company as Senior Vice President and General Manager, reprising his role as leader
