From a small wholesale operation to a global partner for thousands of businesses. This is how Cup Source grew, adapted, and committed to quality.
Cup Source began in a rented warehouse with a clear mission: eliminate the hassle of sourcing quality drinkware for small cafés and restaurants.
Founders Elena Torres and Marcus Lin noticed that independent businesses were overpaying for inconsistent packaging. They partnered directly with certified manufacturers, cut out middlemen, and built a transparent ordering system.
Within 18 months, we onboarded 300 local vendors. By 2018, we had outgrown our original space and expanded into a full-service distribution hub with custom printing capabilities.
Key moments that shaped who we are today.
Cup Source launches. First 50 clients onboarded with next-day local delivery.
Established exclusive contracts with 12 certified manufacturers across Asia and North America.
Introduced full-color digital printing and private-label services for enterprise clients.
