Valley couple opens Blue Marlin Coffee


Veteran entrepreneurs Donlee and Dave Marlin have opened a new business named Blue Marlin Coffee Co.
Launched last month, Blue Marlin is a boutique coffee-roasting company located in the couple’s Pooler Valley home.
After 25 years of owning a multimedia company, an in-home hair salon, and working for Live Real Estate, Donlee Marlin says opening a coffee boutique made sense to her and her husband since they have long loved fresh-roasted coffee.
Marlin says she and her husband were introduced to a local coffee roaster through their multimedia production company, Marlin Media Inc., and they realized Blue Marlin Coffee would be a great fit with their other businesses.

Marlin says they buy their coffee beans through a local co-op and sell their coffee both in whole bean and ground versions to their salon clients and small businesses. Along with direct sales, Blue Marlin sells its product online, at bluemarlincoffee.com. The company offers light, medium, and dark roasts and blends, and Marlin says it offers a variety of ordering and custom packaging options.In naming the coffee company, Marlin says she and her husband wanted to keep their multimedia company’s blue fish as a logo, and the nautical theme has provided what she says to be the most fun part of their business: naming their coffee blends, such as Buried Treasure and Island Buzzard.
