Risking it all for something better

What is the Seventh Wave Refreshments Story? What makes us different? Why do we exist? It’s about JOY! It’s about PEOPLE! It’s about PASSION!

Have you ever felt so passionate about something that you risk absolutely everything to see it come to life? That is where Seventh Wave Refreshments came from.

Our founders have been in the industry for quite some time. They both had successful careers and the honor of working together to create and install refreshments solutions for hundreds of Atlanta customers. They were a perfect team consisting of a super-passionate salesperson and an amazing “nothing is too big” operations guru!”

Until one day, due to changes beyond their ­control, a “WHY” started creeping in. Why are we running so hard? Why do we care so much about this industry? Why does this matter? One day the answer came … it was always about the people! Our suppliers, our customers, our family, our co-workers. They turned that “WHY” into a “WHAT IF” and realized that their mission was greater than themselves.

They took a leap of faith and founded a greater movement in refreshments – a movement to bring JOY! As the movement took shape, we were able to bring in the best in coffee, the tastiest food experiences, and the most loyal manufacturers you could ask for all who share this vision with us. Seventh Wave Refreshments is founded in passion for our mission, innovative solutions fueled by the greatest suppliers and partners in the industry, and surrendered hearts that have led us to where we are today!

Dedicated and passionate founders

Our company is 100% employee owned. This means that everyone that you encounter shares the same heart and passion of bringing joy to the workplace.

SEVENTH WAVE CORE VALUES

Innovative

Seventh Wave Refreshments will always be the innovative provider you are looking for. We are a group of creative problem solvers who are not afraid of a challenge brought on by customers who are open to innovative solutions. We provide a space for our employees to think outside the box and bring innovative resolutions to the table

Surrender

Whether its faith-based, spiritually motivated, or self-driven, Seventh Wave Refreshments surrenders to the idea that we can truly make a difference in our communities. It’s bigger than workplace refreshments, it is the ability to bring joy to the workplace. Our founders believe that when you do something, you surrender to that idea and do it with all that you have. We work with customers and employees who understand that surrendering is not a sign of weakness, but a sign of knowing there are things bigger than yourself out there.

Passionate

Seventh Wave Refreshments was created from the passion of our founders who strive to create meaningful relationships with our customers and employees. We partner with companies who have a passion for serving their employees and creating strong workplace communities. We promise to inspire and motivate our employees while providing a place where they can develop their individual passions into a fulfilling career.

Our integrity and passion cultivate strong working relationships

“At Hanna Brothers, we believe that a great meal brings people together. We also believe that the best products in the world are meaningless without a professional team delivering and servicing customers at the highest levels of trust and performance. As a fellow vendor to Chick-fil-A, we have had the privilege of working alongside Linda Saldana and have watched her earn the trust of our mutual clients again and again. She has become our go-to reference for new opportunities in her field of specialization and is a perfect complement to what we do inside an organization. It’s “refreshing” to see her work.”

“Even if you manufacture the best Bean To Cup coffee equipment and have a passion for the best coffee you need to have People like Linda on your side, Linda has been able to take our product and passion and bring it to the Atlanta market and everywhere she goes. Thank you, Linda, for sharing our passion for almost 9 years.”

“As a manufacturer’s representative I count professionalism, integrity and thorough follow through as prerequisites to serve as ambassador for our brands.  After working together for the better part of 9 years, few Starbucks Premier Provider consultant partners have been as innovative and fun to work with as Linda Saldana.  She expects and gets the most from suppliers.  I routinely recommend Linda to our prospective partners without hesitation for her ability to elevate the customer experience and deliver on our value proposition.”
