About Nossa Familia Coffee
_-_5.jpg)
The name "Nossa Familia" means "Our Family" in Portuguese. Augusto Carvalho Dias Carneiro started the company. He wanted to create a coffee business that felt like family.
How the Company Grew
In 2017, Nossa Familia Coffee decided to make some changes. They planned to close their main coffee roasting building and a small coffee shop in northwest Portland. Instead, they wanted to open more coffee shops in different places.
They opened several new cafes:
- Nossa Familia's Guatemala Cafe in southeast Portland.
- Nossa Familia's Brazil Cafe, also in southeast Portland.
- Nossa Familia's Cloudforest Espresso Bar in northwest Portland.
- Nossa Familia's CalEdison Espresso Bar in Los Angeles, California.
Being Eco-Friendly
In 2019, Nossa Familia Coffee became the first coffee shop in Portland to do something special. They added a small extra charge for coffee served in disposable cups. This was to encourage people to use reusable cups. It helped reduce waste.
Reopening After Challenges
The company had to stop operating for almost two years. This was because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many businesses faced challenges during this time. Nossa Familia Coffee reopened its doors in January 2022. They were happy to welcome customers back.
