Meet the Business Owners:
Valdy Pinto
Valdy Pinto, owner and head barista at World Blend, brings 20+ years of global restaurant experience, including managing Olive Garden and Patrizio’s in Texas. He’s known for boosting customer satisfaction through quality products and service. Valdy created World Blend to connect people worldwide—not just over coffee, but through shipping, mailing, and more.
Valdy is no stranger to coffee. If you ask about his childhood, he’ll tell you about growing up in Brazil, in a culture that sat down for breakfast every morning to a mostly empty table. Back then, milk was expensive, so the first meal of the day wasn’t cereal… it was a chunk of bread, accompanied by the best cup of local-grown, artisan-roasted coffee you’ve ever tasted, shared with family. And on a really good day, you got a splash of milk in your mug.
This foundation of family, of culture and close-knit community, is the heart of World Blend. Valdy aims to serve the local community in the way that he knows best – by being there during the most important times of his patrons lives.
Complete with a quiet but full-service business services center, you’ll find that once you learn about World Blend, it will become a regular part of the fabric of your day.

Valdy’s wife, is co-owner and head of marketing and events. She has a strong background in the marketing field managing advertising for small, medium and large companies such as IBM, General Motors and Direct Energy. She’s been the complement and behind the scenes part of World Blend to maintain long-lasting and ever-present relationships with customers.
