Who we are

East meets West...a family tradition!

Randy Wirth, raised near San Francisco, and Sally Sears, raised just outside of New York City, met and were married in Utah just over 34 years ago. Caffe Ibis, at 52 Federal Avenue in the historic district of downtown Logan, Utah, was spawned by the couple's desire to provide new organic alternatives in food and cooking. This organic product venture eventually led Randy into the Specialty Coffee area.

Over the next few years as specialty and organic coffee began to gain popularity with consumers, Randy began to focus more attention to organic coffee roasting and production. As our coffee customer base grew, The Caffe Ibis grew into a larger and more socially responsible coffee roasting operation. Some issues that have risen out of the specialty coffee movement are different certifications, mainly: Organic, Fair Trade, and Shade Grown coffee certifications. The Caffe Ibis has stayed current with these issues and have gone to great lengths to become one of the most environmentally supportive "green businesses" focussing on sustainability from the coffee farm to every cup of Caffe Ibis coffee.

The Caffe Ibis is a roaster of "Triple certified", "Double certified" and several varities of specialty conventional coffees. Caffe Ibis certifications are held through the following organizations:

• Quality Assurance International - Organic Certification. more
• TransFair USA - Fair Trade Certification. more
• Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center - Shade Grown Certification. more

The Caffe Ibis has a genuine belief in green, sustainable, environmental, and socially responsible business practices has lead them to develop the most complete offering of "Triple certified" coffees in the country. more
