How Foxhole
Got Started

Two guys who'd had enough of bad coffee in bad places. Foxhole started the way most good ideas do โ€” at the end of a supply chain in a place that didn't have one.

When you're overseas and the only coffee available is a foil pouch of pre-ground whatever-that-is, you learn pretty fast what coffee can actually be and why it matters. Not as a luxury. As a mission-critical asset.

That's where the freshness obsession came from. Not from reading a coffee blog. From knowing exactly what stale coffee tastes like and refusing to serve it to anyone.

"The mission doesn't end at the door. It carries into everything you do. Including how you start your day."

Who's Behind It

Two founders. One problem they couldn't leave alone.

Cal Reimer
Co-Founder & Head of Operations

U.S. Army combat veteran. Spent years solving logistics problems in places where supply chains went to die. Came home and couldn't stop thinking about why good coffee was so hard to find where it mattered most. Runs the sourcing, operations, and everything that isn't roasting.

Marcus Vael
Co-Founder & Head Roaster

Served. Worked a season on a private estate in Guatemala. Came back with opinions about altitude and processing that most people find exhausting at parties. Runs every roast profile โ€” four roasts, each developed to cover a different mission profile from pre-dawn to late-night operations.

Cal's approach to sourcing is the same as his approach to the mission: know the terrain, respect the process, and never send anything you're not proud of.
