Compact Industries, Inc.
A family and history of revolutionizing the way America enjoyed coffee.
Founded in 1963, Compact Industries, Inc. began as an instant coffee, cocoa and soup packer. The firm’s primary product was called the In-Cup: a paper, lined cup filled with soluble coffee. By adding hot water, these cups were an instant coffee delivery system for consumers. Shortly thereafter, the In-Cup was modified for use with a new technology—coin operated vending machines. In 1973, John F. Green III joined Compact Industries, Inc. as President and shortly thereafter purchased the majority stake in Compact Industries, Inc. During his tenure, he expanded the product line to include single serve instant coffee packets and food service bags that was marketed in bulk and packaged form. As business grew, the company expanded its capacity to accommodate contract-packaging services for powdered beverages and dry food products. Sales exploded in the early 1990s as the firm packaged a new beverage mix, instant cappuccino.
