Who is LePerco?

LePerco is a coffee story, but above all, a traveling story. A story where coffee meets music and where an enthusiastic barista becomes a passionate record store owner (or vice versa).
Pierre-Marie carried his Barista-Record Store equipment through markets and festivals to share his love of coffee, which he chose to be organic, fair trade and roasted by big names.

And then, thanks to a well-known crisis, LePerco transformed itself into a sensitive and sensible coffee roaster.

Not abandoning what had made him famous since 2017, the music-loving barista decided to roast his own coffee in 2020 and set up shop at the Eole business incubator in Narbonne to produce and then distribute throughout Occitanie. There, roasting became a passion.

A roasting process that makes sense.

But what distinguishes LePerco's specialty coffees from other coffees?
LePerco is a member of a cooperative that brings together 17 European roasters (including 4 in France), because Pierre-Marie is committed to fair trade practices. Through "Roasters United," he can source coffee directly from cooperatives of dedicated producers, ensuring fair and organic production. The members of "Roasters United" are working to create ideal import conditions for ambitious small coffee producers, with strict specifications to benefit all stakeholders.

Inspired by the producer communities it collaborates with, Roasters United aims to be a cooperative synonymous with fairness, quality, and ethics. To learn more about this unique cooperative, visit the official Roasters United website.

LePerco is therefore committed to offering specialty coffees with the most impeccable quality journey possible, from the human being and their story to your cup.

Cafes of the world

Through this cooperative, LePerco rigorously selects its coffee beans from Africa, Asia, and Central and South America. These coffee beans come from Brazil, Ethiopia, Colombia, and Guatemala, where they are then "roasted" in Narbonne, much to the delight of its professional and individual customers.

LePerco is a specialty coffee. A coffee born from meticulous work from the producer to the roaster, with impeccable traceability.
