About the Owner

Hi, so happy you’re here. I’m Alvin, the owner and founder of Apricitas Coffee Co. My love of coffee began during my teenage years. The smell, flavor, and variety of coffee has been a thing for me for a very long time. I spent 8 of my post high school years working in bakeries, cafes, including well-known coffee shops, while earning my Associates Degree in business. Over the past decade, though, I settled down in a career on the business side of healthcare as a medical coder. Working in the direct and indirect patient care side of healthcare has allowed me the opportunity to work with and meet many great people.
However, with the COVID-19 pandemic hitting in early 2020, all aspects of healthcare (including my area of medical coding) were affected. I began Apricitas Coffee during this time as, not just a side business, but also as way to use my love of coffee to bring joy, and brightness in a time of much change and sadness. I'm of the view that great coffee is a way for those of like mind to enjoy each others company. Therefore, Apricitas is about community through coffee. Additionally, I enjoy faith, family, friends, along with my wife and 2 cats. So again, thank you for stopping by and we look forward to serving you soon!
Kind Regards,
Alvin R. Cureton, Jr.-Founder & CEO
