It serves the Canadian specialty coffee market through online sales and has gained recognition within Quebec's coffee scene.

History

Ambros Coffee Roasters was founded in 2020 by Anthony Argiropoulos, who decided to start the business after attending the Canadian Roasting Society event just before the pandemic.

Inspired by their Greek heritage and family involvement in specialty coffee, the brothers aimed to differentiate their brand while honoring traditional roasting approaches.
