I just got off the phone with Wegmans corporate office (1-800-934-6267) and was told Wegmans Columbian Roast coffee -ground version- is made by : Mother Parkers Tea & Coffee, Ontario, Canada.
Check their site for more info: www.mother-parkers.com/
I hope this answers for all who wanted to know.
That's awesome! Thanks for tracking the information down.
You're welcome Jess !!!!
I don't even drink coffee, but I love solving mysteries.
Thanks so much! I dont know why I never thought about doing this!
It's common for private label supermarkets to import from coffee wholesalers in Europe and Colombia. (Westrock and Red Diamond are two of the largest.) Wegman's sells the most popular brands, so I'm not quite certain what benefit they would achieve from actually rebranding an existing retailer?
I couldn't find that information. Many of there private label products come from LiDestri but I couldn't find confirmation that they provide the coffee. They probably get it from another source and package it for Wegmans anyhow.

Hope someone else can find out for you.
This article is from 2010, so it is not new. It only says that Wegmans has its own coffee suppliers. www.supermarketnews.com/
When I checked Wegmans site, this Q&A came up:
Who manufactures Wegmans coffee?
Wegmans offers an 11.3 ounce canister for $3.99 ($0.35/oz), a tad cheaper than some other retailers. The Folgers brand, around since 1850, was acquired by Proctor & Gamble in 1963 but was sold to the J.M. Smucker Company in 2008.
So, it looks like the makers were first Folgers, then Proctor & Gamble, and now J.M. Smuckers.
I hope this answers your question.
I'm sorry to disagree but that article that you took the quote from is talking about Folgers coffee being purchased at Wegmans. Here is the complete article. Google just used some sort of predictive programming to fill in the answer when you search terms like "Who makes Wegmans coffee."
I couldn't find any definitive proof of who makes their coffee. Perhaps your local manager might know who the supplier is.
Maybe someone @ Wegman's knows who makes it. Here's a contact form that may help you get an answer:
