Like many in the community, Rose N Crantz Roasting was unaware of White’s leanings. “I find such movements despicable. While we no longer have dealings with Mr. White, we would have parted ways with him much earlier if we had known,” said Rose N Crantz owner Jamie Nichols. Dan Dampier, the owner of Wolfhead Coffee, another one of Joya's suppliers, said that his company stopped supplying White with coffee after his cafe shut its doors.

“I will not do business with Thomas White," he told VICE. "If I was aware that he was such a hateful person I would have never done business with him at all. This alt-right white nationalist racist stuff isn’t what I’m about, it isn’t what Wolfhead Coffee is about, and I don’t think it’s what our community is about.”
