When Corim Industries began in 1990, the vision was simple: bring exceptional coffee to market with passion, quality and care. What started as a grassroots coffee distributor has grown into a six-building campus in Brick, New Jersey—and along the way, Corim has become much more than a coffee company.
Today, Corim is a leader in private label and contract manufacturing, offering an end-to-end process that takes products from idea to shelf. But while the capabilities have expanded, the foundation hasn’t changed: listen first, innovate responsibly and treat every customer relationship as a partnership.
Growing With Our Customers
In the early days, Corim focused exclusively on coffee. But as our customers’ needs evolved, so did we. When partners asked for specialty packaging, we invested in equipment. When they needed soluble cocoa and teas, we expanded our product lines. When the market shifted toward single-serve formats, we built out dedicated facilities to stay ahead.
Through every stage of growth, one thing has never changed—our commitment to quality. Corim sources only the best ingredients and applies rigorous processes to maintain consistency at any scale. We’ve earned and maintained certifications that reflect our high standards, and we continue to invest in the latest equipment and technology to enhance automation, increase efficiency and deliver the best possible product. At the same time, we never lose sight of what matters most: strong relationships built on trust, collaboration and respect.
A One-Stop Shop for Beverage Brands
For many beverage companies, launching a new product means juggling multiple vendors: one for ingredients, another for blending, a third for packaging and perhaps a consultant for nutritional compliance. Corim simplifies that process.
Our partners work with a single team that handles:
- Sourcing of high-quality raw materials, including imported green coffee beans and pure cane sugar.
- Blending and roasting to custom specifications, whether a light roast coffee or a specialty drink mix.
- Agglomeration to improve powder solubility and consistency.
- Packaging and labeling in a variety of formats, from retail pouches to single-serve pods.
- Nutritional analysis and compliance, including Certificates of Analysis (C of A’s) and breakdowns of custom nutrition panels.
- In-house graphic design, so labels and packaging reflect each brand’s identity.
By centralizing all these capabilities, Corim gives brands back their most valuable resource: time. Instead of managing multiple contracts and vendors, our customers can focus on growth while we manage the details.
Innovation at the Core
The beverage industry never stops evolving. From mushroom lattes to collagen-infused protein powders, today’s consumers want products that are functional, natural and aligned with their lifestyle.
Corim’s Research & Development Lab is where those ideas take shape. Our scientists and technicians test ingredients, refine blends and ensure each formula meets not only taste expectations but also compliance requirements. The lab performs moisture analysis, Agtron color scale tests, extraction yield analysis and other critical checks that guarantee consistency.
Recent R&D projects include:
- Functional beverages with protein, collagen, mushroom extracts and more
- Specialty mixes tailored to today’s consumer preferences
- Specialty products such as flavored sugars, natural ciders & mocktail mixers
For our partners, the lab is more than a technical resource—it’s a creative partner that helps turn bold ideas into viable products.
Scaling Made Simple
One of the biggest hurdles for growing brands is scaling production. A formula that works in a test kitchen doesn’t always translate to a full-scale run.
At Corim, we’ve designed our processes to adapt at every stage:
- Pilot runs for testing and market validation
- Flexible minimums for brands just starting out
- High-volume capacity for national chains and major distributors
And when it’s time to reorder, our system ensures that the same product you tested in small batches is replicated with precision in larger runs. That flexibility—paired with decades of technical expertise—means our partners never outgrow us.
Design and Packaging That Sell
A great product needs packaging that matches its quality. Corim’s in-house design team ensures that every package is not only compliant but also competitive on the shelf. From eye-catching branding to nutrition labels that meet FDA standards, we help brands put their best face forward.
Because packaging is handled on-site, we can align design, compliance and production in one seamless process. The result is faster turnaround and fewer errors—critical advantages in a competitive retail environment.
Sweet Solutions With Elzan Sugar
Beyond beverages, Corim also offers sweetener solutions through our Elzan Sugar division. With proprietary packing equipment and in-line flexo printing, Elzan produces private-label sugar and sweetener packets at scale. Options range from pure cane sugar to raw sugar, sucralose, stevia, monkfruit, saccharin, aspartame, honey crystals, cinnamon sugar, vanilla sugar and more.
With capacity for up to a million packets per shift, Elzan supports both small boutique brands and large-scale national retailers. This division underscores Corim’s philosophy: whatever your size or stage, we have the tools to help you grow.
Partnership at the Center
What truly sets Corim apart isn’t just the machinery or the product range—it’s the relationships. For more than 30 years, we’ve grown almost entirely by word of mouth. We’ve never needed a sales team—our reputation and customer referrals have fueled steady, organic growth. Our customers stay with us not just because of the products we produce, but because of the way we work: respectful, transparent and collaborative.
That spirit of partnership continues to guide every new investment, every innovation and every product that leaves our facility.
Looking Ahead
Corim’s story is one of growth, but also of focus. From our coffee roots to today’s full-service manufacturing, our mission has remained steady: listen first, innovate with care and deliver products that make brands stronger.
As we look ahead to the next 30 years, we’re excited to keep building with our partners—one idea, one product, one relationship at a time.
