Behind the Brand

Hi, I’m Derek—founder of Another Sunrise Coffee Company.

For a long time, mornings were the hardest part of my day. Struggling with my own mental health, I often woke up feeling heavy, unmotivated, and unsure how to keep moving forward. But over time, I held on to a simple mantra that got me through:
“Just make it to another sunrise.”

That phrase became a lifeline. A quiet reminder that even when everything felt overwhelming, there was still another chance. Another morning. Another shot at something better.

One of the few things I looked forward to each day was coffee. It might sound small or mundane—but in those moments, it gave me something to be excited about. The smell, the ritual, the warmth in my hands—it sparked something inside me. A little bit of comfort. A little bit of hope.

That daily cup became more than just caffeine. It was a reason to get out of bed, a small act of self-care, a moment of stillness that helped me keep going.

Another Sunrise Coffee Company was born out of that experience. It’s more than just a coffee brand—it’s a symbol of resilience, healing, and the power of small moments to make a big difference. Every cup is a reminder that you’re not alone. That your story matters. And that even if today is hard, there’s always the hope of another sunrise.

We donate a portion of every purchase to mental health education and care, because I believe everyone deserves support—especially when they feel like they have none.

Whether you’re starting your day with purpose or just trying to make it through, I hope our coffee brings you a little warmth, a little peace, and the strength to face whatever’s ahead.

Thanks for being part of the journey.
