The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (A&P) began in New York City in 1859. It was the largest grocery store chain in the United States from 1915 through 1975. With over 16,000 locations at its peak, A&P was America’s largest supermarket. We have now tapped into our humble NYC roots to bring special crafted coffees and teas into American households once again. Our beans are handpicked and freshly roasted in New York.
