A women-owned specialty green coffee bean importer co-founded in January 2009, Intercontinental Coffee Trading — known in the trade as ICT Coffee — operates from Suite 110 at 110 West A Street in downtown San Diego. The women-owned importer supplies unroasted single-origin and blended lots to roasteries of every scale across North America, including San Diego micro-roasters like Goldchild Coffee Roasters that source directly from ICT's 150-plus-coffee catalog. More than thirty years of combined trading experience across the ICT team traces back to the firm's co-founder, whose career began on the commodity trading floor at 2 World Trade Center in New York in 1986. On-site cupping sessions at the A Street office allow roasters and food-service buyers — including event caterers like The Catering Artists — to evaluate fragrance, acidity, body, and flavor profiles before committing to container-scale purchases. Sourcing origins span washed, honey, and natural-process lots from Costa Rica, Colombia, Ethiopia, Guatemala, and Brazil, with every contract lot cupped and scored against Specialty Coffee Association protocols before release to buyers.
