Pair Cupworks is built on the pursuit of passion. It is a nationally award-winning specialty coffee roastery with wholesale clients across the US and internationally in Europe and Asia. The company began roasting in 2017 and opened its first coffee bar in the East Valley area of Arizona in 2020. Since then, it has built a reputation for being knowledgeable in its technical craft.

Its roaster and co-founder, Kimhak, is the public face of the company and has a culinary background. He has over 30 years of experience in the food-service industry in both front and back-of-the-house operations. The company's co-founder, Eugenia, is responsible for Pair's original brand graphics and has a mixed background working between commercial illustration/graphic design and structural engineering.

Each one of its team members is highly talented, skilled, reliable, creative, and self-motivated with a drive for self-improvement, but most importantly, they all harbor a deep love and appreciation for the craft of specialty coffee.
