Welcome to the MCT family
Interested in serving our coffee in your café or restaurant? Perhaps you're just getting started with your dream business but already know that you want coffee to be a part of it? Maybe you are looking to serve our coffee in your business, office or lodging. No matter your goal, we'd love to work with you through our wholesale program to provide your business and customers with locally-roasted, Montana Coffee Traders coffee!
Established in 1981
We have been roasting and serving coffee, becoming a part of the flavor of the the Flathead Valley, since the company was founded in 1981. Coffee has changed a lot over the last 40 years, and we have grown and evolved along with the changing tastes and needs of our customers.
Quality
It's the foundation of every cup. We source high-grade arabica coffee from farmers all over the world, including direct to farm partnerships. Our roast master takes those green beans to the next level, roasting each variety to its perfect development on our pair of Loring smart roasters.
Education and support
Our favorite part of our job is using our expertise to make your coffee journey as easy as it can be. Our sales reps have a combined 16+ years of coffee experience and no matter what your goals, we can get you where you need to be. We offer coffee consulting, espresso training, tastings, manuals and guides for each part of your coffee bar, as well as marketing customized to your needs.
Customer Experience
The foundation of the MCT family is our customer service. Our goal is to build a relationship with you. Whomever you interact with, you will received focused individual attention. Sales reps, phone orders, coffee delivery and equipment service, we're all here to make your experience as good as our coffee.
Full Service
Whether you run a bustling café, a drive-thru (one or many!) or an office and work space, we have the ability to support your needs. From consulting on coffee bar layouts and menu creation to setting you up with the correct coffee, ordering, and shipping schedule, we are up for it and can get these dialed just for you.
MAGGIE SCHWENKER
Wholesale & Customer Service Manager

maggie@coffeetraders.com
Maggie joined MCT early in 2020 as a store manager before moving into her sales role. Before moving to Montana, she had worked in specialty coffee for nearly 10 years, and loves bringing the wealth of knowledge and perspectives she’s gained in the industry to her work with MCT. Her favorite part of the job is training, getting new baristas excited about the craft and science of great coffee. Maggie has a weakness for any natural processed coffee, like the El Salvador Cruz Gorda. When not tooling around in Glacier National Park with a car full of coffee, Maggie enjoys kayaking, knitting with her cats, and having way too many houseplants.

Wholesale Accounts Manager

shane@coffeetraders.com
Shane joined MCT early in 2021. Starting on our production line, he worked both as a roaster and a production lead until starting his new role as Wholesale Account Manager at the end of 2023. A former English teacher, he looks to bring his experience as an educator and roaster to his role. Shane has a proclivity for medium to dark-roasted Central American coffees but has a growing fondness for our rotating natural process coffees. Outside of MCT, Shane can be found building Duplo and train sets with his boys, exploring Montana with his wife, writing mediocre literature and poetry, fiddling around on his guitars, or losing overpriced fishing lures in our many fine lakes.
