For retail shelves, fresh grinding, cafés, restaurants, offices, gifting, and brewed-coffee programs.
Explore whole bean coffeePour Over Single Serves
Real ground coffee in individual built-in drip filters that brew over a suitable mug with hot water. A grinder, coffee machine, or separate dripper is not required. The grounds remain in the filter; this is not instant coffee.

Wholesale coffee questions
Which coffee formats are available for wholesale consideration?
Oval offers whole bean coffee, Pour Over Single Serves, variety packs, Discovery Sets, and 100-count single-serve cases. Current availability, case configuration, pricing, and program fit are confirmed during account review.
What should I include in a wholesale inquiry?
Include your business name, website, location, channel, number of locations, preferred formats, estimated opening and monthly volume, desired launch date, and any merchandising, education, logistics, or customization needs.
Can retailers and distributors contact Oval?
Yes. Retail buyers, specialty grocery teams, distributors, hospitality groups, offices, cafés, restaurants, and foodservice operators may submit an inquiry. Oval will evaluate the appropriate ordering and fulfillment path.
Why are Pour Over Single Serves useful in commercial programs?
They contain real ground coffee in individual built-in drip filters. Provide hot water, suitable heat-safe mugs, a stable brewing surface, and disposal for used filters. A grinder or coffee machine is not required for brewing, though you still need a way to heat or supply the water. See the hospitality coffee guide for setup considerations.
Does the consumer website show wholesale pricing?
No. Consumer storefront prices are not a wholesale quotation. Applicable pricing, case packs, lead times, freight, and ordering terms are provided after Oval reviews the account and requested program.
What is included in a 100-count pour-over case?
Each case contains 100 individually sealed pour-over servings of one coffee profile. Explore current bulk case options for Bowling Green Women-Grown, The Natural, and Riverside Half Caff. Check the product listing and confirm commercial case configuration and ordering terms with Oval.
Which page should I use for hotels, lounges, or shared workspaces?
Start with Hotels & Hospitality Coffee for single-serve coffee setup and bulk-case planning. For a wholesale account, include your locations, expected monthly servings, delivery requirements, and start date in your inquiry.
How do corporate gifts differ from a wholesale coffee program?
Corporate gifting focuses on custom-labeled coffee bags for client appreciation, employee recognition, welcome kits, and events. Use the corporate gifting page to review formats and request a project quote. Wholesale inquiries focus on resale or ongoing coffee supply and account requirements.
Can gifting companies include Oval in their gift baskets?
Share your proposed pack formats, quantities, delivery locations, and required date with Oval. Whole beans suit recipients with grinding and brewing equipment; single-serve pour-overs need hot water and a suitable mug. Explore coffee gift ideas, then contact Oval to discuss commercial supply. Packaging and customization requirements are confirmed separately.
