Folgers® has been proud to call New Orleans home since we opened our roasters in the city in 1960. Since then, the passion of our people and the vibrancy of our community have shaped who we are today.
In NOLA, everyone is a friend and friends are like family. That’s how it is at Folgers, too—hard not to be, seeing as many employees have been here for over a decade. We even have multiple generations of families working under the same roof. These bonds are why our culture of strength, pride and dedication continues to thrive after all these years.
Nothing showcased the resilience of our community like the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. During the process of rebuilding and recovering, we set up temporary housing on our grounds for workers who lost their homes. We were also one of the first major businesses to reopen, helping to provide a sense of hope to the community at large. We continue to channel that spirit of strength and care in our volunteer and service efforts around the city today.
