Supplier close to PA

There is one I know of, CBI. I think they are headquartered in Colombus Ohio but have a warehouse in York Pa. Believe they sell Indonesian and nicaragua coffee in particular but can't vouch for quality one way or another.

But is it really that important to have a guy in Pa? Lots of top importers keep coffee in all those NJ warehouses, not really that far from you.

Atlas Coffee has a warehouse in NJ. I plan on using them.
