Kevin Bohlin founded Saint Frank Coffee in San Francisco in 2013 after years as a middle school teacher and a formative stint at Ritual Coffee Roasters. His background in theology and cultural anthropology informs a sourcing philosophy he calls relational sourcing: buying exclusively from small scale producers through committed, long term relationships and paying well above market rates. Bohlin travels regularly to origin farms, building connections grounded in mutual accountability rather than third party certifications. Saint Frank also partners with Not For Sale, a nonprofit combating human trafficking, through its St. Clare Coffee program, which provides barista training and employment to survivors. The roastery's mission is flavor, meaning, and connection, pursued with the kind of humility that lets the people behind each coffee remain at the center of the story.
