Episode #5: Carl Churchill – Founder of Lock-N-Load Java

Carl Churchill and his wife Lori wanted to create a different kind of company guided by the principles they lived by… work hard, do good, give back, and make it fun. In founding Lock-n-Load Java, they committed to organizing and running the company based on the discipline and sense of service they got from the military community… while ensuring the fun and camaraderie they experienced remained a core part of the company as well.

Lock-n-Load Java is a veteran and mil spouse owned and operated company dedicated to our military, our veterans, and those who support them. Co-founded in 2010 by LTC(R) Carl Churchill, a combat veteran with 21 years of service as both an enlisted soldier and officer, and his wife Lori Churchill, a military spouse and coffee lover.

Lock-n-Load Java is made up of like-minded individuals who support this vision. All have committed to being part of a company that consistently provides outstanding, top grade premium coffee and serves its community of customers, its employees, and its suppliers with dignity, respect and integrity.
