PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Andrew J Itzkowitz for Oval Coffee Roasters
NEW YORK, NY (SEPTEMBER 2026) — Oval Coffee Roasters announced that six of its coffee products are now available at 45 Lowes Foods locations across North Carolina and South Carolina. Distributed by KeHE Distributors, the products are available in markets including Raleigh, Wilmington, Winston-Salem, Myrtle Beach, Greenville, and Charleston.
The launch includes three light-to-medium roast coffees: the women-grown Bowling Green Blend, the half-caffeinated Riverside Blend, and the naturally processed The Natural. Each coffee is available in a whole-bean format and an eight-pack of single-serve pour-overs.
The single-serve format requires only a mug and hot water, providing an additional preparation option for customers at home, at work, or while traveling.
“Lowes Foods provides an opportunity for Oval to introduce these coffees to shoppers across the Carolinas,” said Christopher Alspach, Director of Coffee and Co-Founder of Oval Coffee Roasters. “Offering each coffee in whole-bean and single-serve formats gives customers several ways to prepare and experience the assortment.”
The retail expansion was completed in collaboration with the Lowes Foods category management team and KeHE Distributors, which provides distribution services to Lowes Foods.
“We appreciate the work of the Lowes Foods and KeHE teams in bringing this launch to stores,” said Andrew Itzkowitz, Managing Director and Co-Founder of Oval Coffee Roasters. “This placement expands Oval’s retail availability throughout North Carolina and South Carolina.”
Oval Coffee Roasters products are now available at participating Lowes Foods stores. Store information is available through the location finders at oval.nyc and lowesfoods.com.
