When Canadian businesses search for custom coffee bags, they typically find two very different types of companies. The first type sells packaging — beautiful, custom-printed bags that you fill yourself. The second type provides everything: the coffee, the roasting, and the branded packaging, all in one place. Rootree and Savor Brands are the first type. EZPZ is the second. Understanding the difference will save you a lot of time, money, and logistical headaches.
What Rootree Does
Rootree is a Canadian packaging company that prints custom coffee bags. They are excellent at what they do — beautiful bags, sustainable materials, compostable options. If you are a roaster who already has beans and just needs premium packaging, Rootree is a legitimate choice.
But they sell you the bag only. You still need to source your own coffee, find your own roaster, and manage your own supply chain. Minimum orders at Rootree start at 2,000 units per SKU with 5 to 7 week lead times. For a restaurant, hotel, or brand that does not already have a roasting partner, this means Rootree is only the first step in a much longer process.
What Savor Brands Does
Savor Brands is another Canadian packaging company focused on compostable coffee bags. Like Rootree, they specialize in the packaging side of the equation — not the coffee itself. You bring your own beans, they print your bag. The quality and sustainability credentials are real.
Also like Rootree, they require minimum orders of 2,000 units with lead times of 5 to 7 weeks. And again — they sell you the packaging. The coffee, the sourcing, the roasting, and the logistics are your problem to figure out separately.
What EZPZ Does Differently
EZPZ is not a packaging company. We are a full-service coffee brand builder.
We provide everything: the specialty-grade coffee sourced from traceable farms and scored 80+ on the SCA scale, the roasting at Canadian Roasting Society in Montreal, and the custom branded bag — all in one order. No roaster to find. No supply chain to manage. No minimum order to hit. You can start with a single bag.
For Canadian restaurants, hotels, boutiques, corporate offices, and any brand that wants to sell coffee under their own name without the operational complexity — EZPZ is the only option that handles everything end-to-end.

Which One Is Right for You?
If you are an established coffee roaster who already has beans and just needs packaging — Rootree and Savor Brands are excellent options. They are serious companies with serious products. We have no issue saying that.
But if you are a restaurant, hotel, boutique, gym, real estate office, corporate brand, or any business that wants to sell coffee under your own name without sourcing beans, finding a roaster, or managing a supply chain — EZPZ is the only option that does everything for you with zero minimum order.
The difference is not just convenience. It is whether you can actually launch. For most non-roaster businesses, having to source coffee separately makes Rootree and Savor Brands effectively inaccessible. With EZPZ, you can have your branded specialty coffee in 2 to 3 weeks, designed and delivered, with no supply chain to build.
