McCafe: McDonald’s to start selling packaged coffee in 2014
McDonald’s has announced it will test selling a variety of packaged ground and whole-bean coffee at supermarkets and other retail outlets starting next year.
The test will also include single-cup servings.
McDonald’s, based in Oak Brook, Illinois, did not disclose any other details. But the company already started selling McCafe packaged coffee in Canada late last year. Those bags weighed about 12 ounces and cost about $7.
The company is teaming up with Kraft Foods Group Inc. to distribute the coffee.
McDonald’s did not say how widespread the test would be.
