Fall/Winter 2009 STANDARD COFFEE SERVICE COMPANY


Continuing Down the Road to Success

As we strive to provide enhanced services to our customers, Standard Coff ee Service Company also takes into account our responsibility to the planet. One of our latest initiatives, a comprehensive route scheduling program, will provide consistent, on-time service while at the same time decreasing our fuel consumption.

Th e plan will allow our Route Sales Representatives (RSRs) to map out optimum delivery routes based on customer locations and hours of operations. Daily schedules are developed according

to these parameters, and delivery appointments are confi gured for each customer to allow enough time for the RSRs to serve each customer appropriately.

Th is route scheduling program, in coordination with our Standard Service Network, means that our customers will receive the highest quality service—in equipment installation, maintenance and on time product deliveries.

Not only will the program increase our operational effi ciencies, it will also help promote fuel effi ciency. By eliminating any redundancy, our RSRs could spend less time on the road and have more time to address customer concerns.

Standard Coff ee Service Company is committed to providing service and products that help you run your business. With an eye toward being good stewards of our environment, we off er Standguard™, a water fi ltration system as an alternative to bottled water, recycled and recyclable products, and now, a more fuel effi cient solution to our delivery and maintenance model. We will continue to seek environmentally friendly practices in our pursuit to enhance your experience as a customer.

Service is Our StandardQuality and Service Since 1919

When William B. Reily founded Standard Coff ee Service Company in 1919, the decision to include the word “service” in the name was a deliberate one. At that time, service referred to the commitment of the company to provide excellent customer service. Nearly a century later, Standard Coff ee is still producing top-notch customer service…and then some.

Th e company has evolved into a one-stop shop for customers of brewed beverages, providing total brewed beverage solutions for offi ces, restaurants and foodservice organizations throughout the country.

Today, customers are provided with quality, sought-after coff ee and tea brands, along with Standguard™, a state-of-the-art water fi ltration system delivering premium drinking water that easily integrates into brewing systems. Our nation-wide delivery system and stream-lined ordering processes ensure that your supplies remain well-stocked.

Our Service Network provides technicians who are experts with the installation, removal and repair of industrial coff ee machines, tea brewers and water fi lters. Th rough a centrally dispatched

work order system, mechanical problems can be addressed in real-time for quick resolution.

Whether you're a small business, large corporation, restaurant or foodservice group, our friendly, knowledgeable staff works in partnership with you to accommodate your brewed beverage needs.

As Standard Coff ee nears its century mark, we have found that the more things change, the more they stay the same. “Service” is still an integral part of our company, and our name.

Warm Up with Coff ee and Tea

While it may be true that you cannot have your cake and eat it too, you can with coff ee and tea. Both coff ee beans and tea leaves are most widely regarded as ingredients in our favorite drinks. Hot, cold, sweetened, creamed and even frozen, coff ee and tea drinks are the most popular liquids in the world. Yet, they can also play a part in many recipes. Entrees range from coff ee pork chops to orange fl avored scallops with loose green tea. Leftover coff ee can be frozen and used in a variety of stews and sauces.

Most recipes involving coff ee and tea, however, are in desserts—providing a perfect accompaniment to your favorite beverage. Before you turn on your coff ee pot or set the tea kettle on the stove, heat up your oven and try one of the recipes below. Enjoy!

Place 12 paper cupcake cases on a baking tray. Combine the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, self-rising fl our, powdered green tea and baking powder in a mixing bowl.

Bake in preheated oven at 395°F for 15-20 minutes or until risen and golden. Th e top of the cupcake should be level with the top of the case. Cool on a wire rack.

Th e terms cocoa and hot chocolate are often used interchangeably to refer to the hot beverage usually consumed in the winter months. Both are derived from the fruit of cacao trees. However, there are subtle diff erences between

the two. Hot chocolate is made with chocolate shavings and milk, while cocoa is made with cocoa powder mixed

with either water or milk and sweetened with sugar. Until Coenraad Johannes van Houten developed the

fi rst cocoa powder-producing machine in 1828, there was no distinction between chocolate and cocoa. Th e machine extracted cocoa butter from the cacao seed and produced a fi ne powder that was easy to stir into milk or water. Th is process also led to the discovery of solid chocolate (a mixture of cocoa power and a small amount of cocoa butter). From that point on, chocolate referred to the solid

form and cocoa to powder.Although the process for making chocolate was

discovered in the Netherlands, the origins

of cocoa go back about 2,000 years ago to the Mayan people. It was said that in the 1400s Aztec leader Montezuma consumed 50 portions of cocoa (mixed with vanilla and spices) each day, using a golden goblet and spoon. He introduced Spanish conquistador Hermán Cortéz to the delicacy “xocolatl” (translated into Spanish as “chocolatl.”) Cortéz returned to Spain with cocoa beans and drink-making equipment.

The drink quickly spread among the Spanish upper class in the 1600s. Its popularity grew in England when English physician Hans Sloane introduced milk chocolate. (He had tasted chocolate in Jamaica but decided it tasted better mixed with milk.)

Today, cocoa still resembles the powdered mixture of centuries ago. It can be made with dark, semisweet, white and bittersweet chocolate. These classifications are based on the amount of sugar, fat,

Contemporary mixtures of cocoa, or hot chocolate, include mint, orange, strawberry and coffee.

milk and cocoa butter used during production of the cacao bean. In addition to mixing in vanilla (as the Aztecs and Spaniards did) and milk (as the English did), more contemporary mixtures of cocoa, or hot chocolate, include mint, orange, strawberry and coffee.


When it comes to your drinking water, why keep your savings bottled up?

Standard Coffee Service Company has been a preferred coffee service vendor for Vanderbilt University and the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital for over ten years.

Throughout that time, Standard Coffee employees Steve Beech and John Clemons had the frequent tasks of making sure the university received quality products with friendly service.

But Steve’s and John’s roles changed for the University and hospital one weekend in May earlier this year.

On Sunday, May 31, 2009, a live telethon was held at a local news station in Nashville, Tennessee to benefit the hospital through the Children’s Miracle Network.

Both men provided coffee and refreshments to all volunteers before presenting a check to the hospital during the telethon.

“Steve and I spent a couple hours setting up for the Sunday event on Saturday to make sure everything was perfect,” said Clemons. “Everything was great.”

All monies donated during the local portion of the telethon will directly benefit Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital.

“There were so many great stories we heard at the telethon where so many children’s lives were saved,” said Clemons. “I have a nine-year-old boy and a three-year-old little girl and it truly touched my heart to know that by the donation that Standard Coffee made, that let me be a part of a great organization.”

According to its website, the hospital is dedicated to meeting the unique healthcare needs of children by providing primary and sub-

specialty services along with serving as a regional referral center. It provides and supports a wide range of services and programs that focus on family-centered care.

The hospital is a member of the Children’s Miracle Network, which has a mission to generate funds and awareness programs in partnership with and for the benefit of member hospitals/foundations and the children they are privileged to serve.

“What a great way to give back,” said Beech. “It was a privilege to be a part of making miracles happen for children in need.”

Steve Beech is a Senior Account Executive who has worked for Standard Coffee for 13 years. John Clemons is a District Sales Manager and been with the company for five years.

Great job, guys!

Th e less an employee prints, the less printer ink is needed. When toner does need to be replaced, choose recycled cartridges. According to Offi ce Depot, every recycled ink cartridge keeps about 2.5 pounds of metal and plastic out of landfi lls and conserves a half gallon of oil.

Energy Effi ciency

Offi ces are responsible for more than 70 percent of total electricity use in this country. What’s more is that computers waste $1 billion worth of electricity each year by not switching to sleep mode after a pre-determined period of time. Businesses can cut energy consumption by 70 percent if employees power down their computers after 15 minutes. A screen saver does not indicate sleep mode and does not save energy.

Because artifi cial lighting accounts for 44 percent of electricity use in an offi ce building, steps should be taken to reduce usage whenever possible. Replace halogen lights, which can get as hot

While Muppet character Kermit the Frog lamented, “It’s not easy being green,” businesses throughout the country are fi nding that it is certainly not the case. With the increase in environmental awareness and concern over global warming, more employers and employees are striving to reduce their carbon footprint. A recycling bin in the copy room is not suffi cient in this day and age.

Th ere are a variety of resources for companies interested in developing a green philosophy. From the initial research to the last step of a green strategy, there are easy to follow guidelines to make the offi ce place more environmentally friendly.

Paper Use

Forego a trip to the bookstore by researching current practices online or visiting a library. One of the most substantial impacts a

company can make is to reduce the amount of paper generated. One single offi ce

worker uses approximately 10,000 pieces of copier paper each year. Th is amount can be reduced not only by recycling, but by also printing

as 1,100°F, with Energy Star-rated light bulbs. Motion sensors or automatic shut off s will ensure lights will be turned off at the close of business. At the very least, encourage employees to turn off their offi ce lights if they are leaving the offi ce for more than 15 minutes.

Nature can play a part as well. Encourage the use of natural lighting and display plants in order to help absorb indoor pollution.

Offi ce Machines and Furniture

Machines such as computers, PDAs and cell phones can all be recycled. Non-profi t organizations and schools often accept computers to be used for their basic offi ce administration. Most cellular companies have PDAs and cell phone recycling receptacles at their service sites. Hewlett-Packard, which was named a “Green Giant” by Forbes, will take back any of its equipment, and their machines are 100 percent recyclable.

Furniture, carpet and paint that are free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) also boast green attributes and won’t emit toxic chemicals into the environment.

Travel

From off ering telecommuting opportunities to renting hybrids when out of town on business, travel practices can signifi cantly alter a business’ environmental footprint. Approximately 23 billion gallons of gas are consumed annually by American commuters. Th is number can be reduced through use of alternative transportation (public transportation, walking and bicycling) and car pools. Adjusting the offi ce environment by allowing workers to telecommute or participate in a consolidated workweek (four 10-hour days) will also decrease gas consumption.

Teleconferences and web conferences can often replace site visits to satellite offi ces. In the instances that business travel is required, request hybrids or gas effi cient automobiles from rental car companies whenever possible.

Most of these green enviromentally friendly products are 100% recycled, 100% recyclable, contain no CFE's*, are biodegradable, compostable and chlorine free.

How to Turn Over a New (Green) Leaf

While studies show that Americans are taking steps to become more environmentally friendly, the majority of these steps are being taken at home. Eff orts to reduce waste in the offi ce environment is lagging behind. Standard Coff ee Service Company off ers a variety of recycled and recyclable products that can help your offi ce begin your journey along a greener path.

Kitchens, Break Rooms and Bathrooms

Opt for paper products made from recycled materials and dump the water bottles. Water filtration systems such as Standguard™ not only ensure water safety and quality; they also save the energy and oil required to produce plastic bottles. Biodegradable soap and non-toxic cleaning supplies, both in reusable dispensers, also alleviate the amount of waste being sent to landfills. Companies that own their own buildings may also want to replace old toilets that use up

to 8 gallons per flush with new ones that use a maximum of 1.6 gallons in order to save water.

Following these recommendations will not only help the environment, it will also help your company’s bottom line, saving energy and money, as well. Just remember, once you develop your green strategy—post it on your website rather than print copies for employees. Every bit of conservation helps.

Green is everywhere. From hybrid cars to compact fluorescent bulbs, recycled tire mulch to high-end consignment shopping—energy and resource efficiency is en vogue. Increasingly, companies are embracing sustainability goals, and employees are demanding their workplaces reduce their global impact. And while the problem is massive, small changes can compound into dramatic results. Something as simple as coffee service can make a difference.

Mars Drinks is committed to being your partner at work and providing easy solutions to help offices meet their sustainability goals. Mars Drinks’ FLAVIA brand offers brewers designed to help all offices be more eco-friendly, no matter their size.

FLAVIA’s Creation 400™ uses leading-edge technology to save water and energy. A two-tank system heats only the water needed to make a few drinks at a time, and in energy-saving mode, it consumes less than one-third the energy used by a 12-watt nightlight*. An advanced sensor system ensures the water isn’t overheated, and the display panel LED screen uses less energy, compared to standard filament light bulbs. In fact, the latest Creation 400 model uses 40% less energy than its single serve competition*.

But the brewers aren’t the only sustainable aspect to FLAVIA. In September, Mars Drinks announced the addition of five drinks to its line of Rainforest Alliance Certified Beverages. Joining the three coffees that were certified in 2008 (House Blend, Kona Blend and Breakfast Blend) are French Vanilla, Hazelnut and French Roast. In addition, FLAVIA unveiled two certified teas—English Breakfast and Earl Grey. These teas are the first single-serve Rainforest Alliance certified teas in

The Envi ronment

North America. This certification ensures that the products in these beverages were grown on farms where the lands are protected and conserved and the workers are treated with respect.

So often businesses are forced to choose between convenience and eco-awareness. FLAVIA is helping companies bridge that divide by offering sustainable products that meet a company’s need to satisfy employees with a simple-to-use, easy-to-manage, and well-appreciated workplace perk.

‘Tis the Season to Drink Coffee

Trends

Today's variety of coffee flavors offers something for every taste bud.

The roar of fans at a football game. Leaves changing colors. Crisp, cool mornings. These are the sights, sounds and feelings of autumn. The aroma of seasonal coffee served in steaming mugs and

the taste of that warm, comforting liquid complete a feast for the senses.

Of the five senses, smell and taste are most closely tied to memory.

These sensory stimuli bypass the area of the brain linked to

logic, triggering the more primitive part of the brain that is related to instinct,

memory and emotion.While scientists search to

understand why smell and taste act differently from the other senses, the coffee industry has taken advantage of these sensual connections. They have created numerous coffee flavors that can evoke happy memories.

According to Technomic, Inc., a leading foodservice research and consulting firm based in Chicago, flavored coffees and flavorings for coffee account for nearly 30 percent of total coffee sales. Because seasonal flavors and limited-time offerings have helped boost sales, this niche market is expected to grow in the coming years.

Traditional fall flavors are associated with the harvest. Look for coffee varieties flavored with cinnamon, apple and pumpkin. Holiday offerings are likely to be spiced with gingerbread, eggnog and peppermint.

Seasonal coffees are made using flavored syrups whereas perennial favorites such as chocolate, hazelnut, caramel and vanilla can flavor coffee in a variety of ways—blended directly into ground coffee or added with syrups and flavored creams. Standard Coffee Service Company offers all three, depending on your preference. Coffee brands include Green Mountain (French Vanilla, Hazelnut, and Southern Pecan) and Barnie's, which offers German Chocolate, Irish Cream, Vanilla Cream and Hazelnut, along with a variety pack of all of its flavors. Javarama has an entire flavor collection featuring Irish Cream, German Chocolate, Vanilla Cream and Hazelnut, along with a variety pack of all of its flavors.

From simple flavors to decadent snacks, Crème de la Crème has enhanced its cappuccino blends with Cinnamon Vanilla Nut, Chocolate Caramel Pecan and English Toffee. FLAVIA offers a Milky Way Swirl flavor, along with Hazelnut and a number of others, through its individual brew drink station.

Flavors such as Amaretto, Cinnamon Vanilla, Irish Crème and Creamy Chocolate are also available in Coffee Mate creamers.

Go ahead and give your employees some happy memories at the office—with flavored coffee!
