A Message From The Founder
More than 35 years ago, we created Corporate Coffee Systems (CCS), an office refreshment concept focused on service, relationships and a good cup of coffee. Since that time, our offerings have evolved in ways we never could have imagined. Though our founding principles remain core to our culture, today’s office client expects more diverse products to satisfy their employees.
As a result of those changing needs, our portfolio has evolved to include sustainable breakroom programs, locally-roasted artisan coffee, healthy and wellness products, cold brew coffee and so much more. Stocking your favorite brands of flavors is no longer enough. Through innovation and consultation, we have become product-sourcing experts for every conceivable refreshment option.
Our Mission is to create and maintain an organization of engaged associates who will curate an exceptional experience for you. We know your team’s breaktime happiness matters to you, and it matters to us as well. Let us help you create exceptional tasting, breakroom moments that FUEL Great Work!
David Henchel – President/CEO

The Road We’ve Traveled
Corporate Coffee Systems (CCS) was born in February of 1985. Founded by David & Gregg Henchel and Donn Luti, an initial investment of $3,000 borrowed from a MasterCard was used to launch the business.
The early days were filled with hard work, on-the-job training and a huge learning curve. One hundred hour workweeks were typical as a sales and operations model, as well as a culture was created and developed. We have made a significant investment along the way in talent and training to create an engaged work environment.
Throughout these past 30+ years, CCS has continued to expand, acquiring over 20 other office coffee companies and moving a number of times before settling into its current 40,000 sq ft. headquarters in Westbury, NY. Additionally, we operate a midtown Manhattan sales office and showroom that welcomes visitors to touch, taste and experience the technology of the most innovative brewing solutions. Today, CCS employs one of the largest office refreshment teams with more than 90 associates, 25 route trucks, and 20 service technicians.
As a result of the changing needs of our clients and the birth of specialty coffee, our product and equipment portfolio has evolved to include sustainable breakroom programs and café-style beverages, whether it is a locally roasted artisan coffee, zero waste pod singles or cold brew coffee and so much more. Stocking your favorite brands or flavors is no longer enough as we have become product-sourcing experts for every conceivable refreshment option.
As leaders in the office refreshment industry, CCS provides workplace coffee and refreshment programs to over 5,000 clients in the New York City metro area including Manhattan, Long Island, Westchester, Fairfield County CT and Northern NJ.
CCS is poised to continue its aggressive growth through quality acquisitions and in new partnerships with office clients who seek to offer the greatest tasting coffee moments in their breakroom.
