Heine Brothers' is a chain of coffee shops founded in 1994 by Gary Heine and Mike Mays in Louisville, KY.[1] Since then the chain has opened 13 locations within Kentucky and Southern Indiana.[2] The company became 100% Fair-Trade and Organic in 2002.[3] In 2011 co-founder Mike Mays bought out Mr. Heine's interests in the company and merged it with Vint, a local coffee shop chain.[4]

In 1999 Heine Brothers' became a founding member of Cooperative Coffees, Inc; an importer of fairly traded and organically grown green coffee operating in the United States and Canada.[3] In early 2015, in a partnership with Forecastle Foundation and Whole Foods Market, Heine Brothers created "Kentucky Dream", a fair trade coffee blend benefiting conservation efforts.[5]

In late 2016 the company will be relocating their headquarters to West Louisville.[6]
