The Story of Deadstock Coffee

Deadstock Coffee started small as a cart. In August 2015, it grew into a full coffee shop with a sneaker theme in the Old Town Chinatown neighborhood.

In 2020, the shop became very popular and saw a big increase in customers. That year, the owner, Ian Williams, announced plans to open a second location in a new development in northeast Portland.

In 2023, Deadstock Coffee worked with a Haitian restaurant called Kann. Together, they created and launched a special custom coffee blend for people to enjoy.
