About Us
Component Coffee’s mission is to build connections in our communities by creating extraordinary experiences through coffee and food.
Jonathan Anderson and Greg Amend grew up in the same neighborhood, busying themselves with general mischief building skate ramps and playing basketball. Later they reconnected through mutual friends and working in coffee. After sharing a common passion of coffee and dreams of one day running a specialty coffee company, they got to work building Component Coffee in 2017, serving at Farmer's Markets and events with their Slayer V3 Espresso machine on a mobile cart. They opened their first brick-and-mortar in Downtown Visalia in 2018.
Component now operates three stores and a roastery in the California Central Valley towns of Visalia, Fresno, and Tulare.
Jon and Greg founded Component because they wanted to give something great back to the community that invested so much into who they are today. At Component, coffee and culinary arts are our love languages, and we obsess over creating wonderful experiences, using coffee to bind our community together in a very special way.
While we serve in our cafes, ship coffee to guests at home, sling coffee from our catering cart, and supply our wholesale partners, we work hard to deliver high-fidelity experiences all day, every day. Come and see what we’re all about!
Our Values
Coffee
We work closely with a few ethically-minded brokers to ensure that all of our coffee is responsibly sourced, so that producers get their fair share. We source specialty-grade coffee, roasting each origin to develop clean, sweet, and long-lasting flavors.
Culinary
The way to the heart is through the belly. That’s why we’ve spent countless hours perfecting our food menu to create unforgettable breakfast plates and goodies.
Community
We believe that people only thrive within community, and that everyone deserves to have a place where they belong. Our team works hard to create positive and welcoming places to make connections above transactions.
