Green Mountain’s Expiring K-Cup Patents Attract Coffee Rivals

By Leslie Patton - Nov 18, 2011 12:00 AM ET



Sept. 16, 2012, is D Day -- or at least K Day -- for Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. (GMCR)

That’s when it will lose the main patents on K-Cups, the coffee pods that helped make Green Mountain the largest player in the $1 billion-plus U.S. single-serve coffee market.

Concentrate, and ASK the 8-Ball!
