PRESS Coffee and Sprouts Farmers Market have launched a specialty coffee pilot of the first-ever locally owned PRESS Coffee location inside of a Sprouts store. This PRESS location will act as a convenient stop on any person’s weekly shopping trip inside Sprouts located at 3320 N. 7th Avenue in Phoenix.
The new space will feature a workspace area and full drink menu including specialty drip and cold brew coffee, shakers, hot and iced tea and nitro bold brew.
“Growing up in Arizona, I have always been a Sprouts customer,” said PRESS co-owner Jason Kyle. “Seeing the commitment from the Sprouts team to providing a quality experience for the customer makes it a perfect fit for PRESS and our ‘Quality Driven, Community Focused’ effort.’”
“Choosing to partner with the Arizona-based PRESS Coffee was an easy decision,” said Dave McGlinchey, chief strategy officer of Sprouts. “PRESS and Sprouts have a shared mission of providing people fresh, quality, sustainable and ethically sourced specialty products. We are proud to open our first pilot location in the Phoenix community for all to enjoy.”
Roasting, brewing and serving the world’s finest specialty Coffee is the foundation of PRESS Coffee. Rare beans are sourced from select farmers and then roasted at PRESS’ roastery in Phoenix.
Sprouts, headquartered in Phoenix, is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year.
In addition, the pilot location will offer a limited supply of the regular in-store retail items including whole and ground coffee beans. PRESS also offers monthly coffee bean subscriptions shipping locally and throughout the United States with subscribers receiving the option to buy the quarterly Allocation release – a high-end, limited supply specialty coffee, first.

Performance Food Group Company has launched its latest seafood item, Bay Winds Fair Trade Certified Norwegian Salmon. Through a partnership with Beaver Street Fisheries, PFG has exclusive rights to distribute the only farmed salmon in the world that is Fair Trade Certified.
A program of Fair Trade USA, Fair Trade Certified is the only certification program that covers fundamental human rights, workplace safety and environmental stewardship while also providing a direct economic benefit to producers and their families. Kvaroy Arctic, producer of Bay Winds salmon, has helped build schools, introduced aquaculture education programs and created scholarships funds to promote farm sustainability, animal welfare and environmental protection.
Bay Winds Fair Trade Certified Norwegian Salmon portions are delivered frozen in 10-pound packages, and are packed in 4-ounce, 6-ounce or 8-ounce portions — skin-on or skinless. Just one four-ounce serving of Bay Winds Fair Trade Certified Norwegian salmon has more than 2,000 mg of omega 3s—exceeding the weekly recommended goal. Bay Winds Fair Trade Certified Norwegian Salmon has double the omega-3 content of other farmed salmon, due to the non-GMO food fed to the salmon during their growing period.
Bay Winds Fair Trade-Certified Norwegian Salmon is raised in a way that is most healthful for the fish, and the planet, too. These salmon portions are certified from Fair Trade USA, meaning this salmon is sourced responsibility by addressing impacts through social, environmental, and economic issues. Fair Trade USA standards go beyond fisheries and farms by protecting the rights of workers within the certified company and its supply chain.
Farm-raised, all-natural, sustainable and environmentally responsible Bay Winds Fair Trade- Certified Norwegian Salmon Portions will bring a little bit of Norway to any plate.
