Passionate about Specialty Coffee

Insurance & Specialty Coffee have one major item in common: Relationships.

 

“In the last 15 years professionally, I have found great joy insuring industries that I am passionate about – like the world of Specialty Coffee.

Ever since my son and I attended the SCA Expo in 2015, my appreciation for the world of specialty coffee has multiplied every year. The coffee, the people, the community, the conscience to improve lives from origin to cup – so many reasons to be a fan!

As incongruous as it may sound, it’s my opinion that insurance should be similar to specialty coffee in that it’s all about long-term, trusted relationships.”

Andy Giambarba, Vice President of Commercial Insurance at IOA Miami

Panther Coffee has been working with Andy and IOA for almost a decade! Andy and his team understand our industry and keep us updated on the ever-changing insurance landscape... They are reliable, trustworthy and have always gone the extra mile to serve our insurance needs.
