Case Study: Nossa Familia Coffee achieves a new HQ and three Portland cafes with Cresa

Cresa Guides the NFC Team through the Portland Real Estate Waters, Identifying and Negotiating a New HQ and 3 New Cafes in 12-month Period

Nossa Familia Coffee, a Portland-based roaster and café operator, needed a trusted partner to navigate a tight, low-vacancy market while expanding both retail and industrial footprints. They engaged Cresa for Transaction Management and Consulting to help identify partners and sites that would support a collaborative, long-term café presence across the city.

Cresa guided Nossa Familia Coffee through site selection and negotiations, culminating in the purchase of a new headquarters and roasting facility in Northwest Portland (a complex $3.5M+ transaction) and the selection and negotiation of three new café locations — all within a 12-month period. The work by Cresa delivered increased capacity for current operations, room for future growth, and an expanded retail footprint that reinforced Nossa Familia’s position in Portland’s competitive coffee market.
