A founder-led introduction to Oval
The film presents three ideas behind Oval: clearer coffee concepts, convenient ways to brew real coffee, and a brand shaped by roasting, design, culture, and modern New York City.
Oval is a New York City coffee brand, roasting and producing coffee in Hunts Point, The Bronx, and working with businesses evaluating whole bean coffee, Pour Over Single Serves, variety packs, and larger-format single-serve cases. Current program details and inquiries belong on the dedicated wholesale coffee page.

The three ideas in the film, through a buyer's lens
Clarity
Bowling Green emphasizes Women-Grown sourcing, The Natural emphasizes natural processing, and Riverside offers Half Caff. These different attributes help customers compare coffees alongside roast style and flavor descriptions.
Convenience
Pour Over Single Serves contain ground coffee in a built-in filter. Customers and guests brew over a mug with hot water, without a grinder or machine. Whole beans support operators and shoppers with their own brewing equipment.
Relevance
Oval connects Bronx roasting with design and New York City culture. The NYC coffee montage offers another view of that brand story.

Retail reach and documented hospitality experience
The store locator introduces participating retailers in New York City, New York State, and regions across the United States. The press page distinguishes independent coverage from Oval's retail and distribution announcements.
For hospitality context, watch the documented James Beard House coffee setup and TikTok headquarters event film. For preparation and customer perspectives, explore the brewing tutorial and reviews page.
Use these resources to understand the coffee and brand, then discuss your business requirements through the wholesale inquiry process. Pricing, assortment, fulfillment, and program availability are confirmed for each inquiry.
Coffee formats for different programs
Whole bean coffee supports fresh grinding, retail shelves, and brewed-coffee programs. Pour Over Single Serves contain real ground coffee in individual drip filters that brew with hot water and a mug. 100-count cases support larger office, hotel, hospitality, and event needs.
For guest rooms and self-service coffee amenities, explore hotel and hospitality coffee. For custom coffee gifts of about 100–1,000 bags, use corporate and event gifting. Larger private-label inquiries can be discussed through the wholesale inquiry.
