The business is owned by Ian Christopher, Thevy Hul, and Prak Khou.[9] Coco has donated surplus food to Outside In and has participated in Too Good To Go, an app that connects customers to restaurants and stores with surplus unsold food.[10] There are seven locations in the Portland metropolitan area, including six in Portland and one in Clackamas:[11]
Time Out Portland included Coco in a 2019 list of the city's twelve best doughnuts.[7] In his 2021 overview of Portland's best doughnuts, Alex Frane of Thrillist said the business "takes the traditional approach to donut shops and elevates it without losing sight of the roots".[13] Coco was included in Bon Appétit's 2023 list of Portland's eight best doughnuts[1] and Eater Portland's 2024 overview of the city's "most delicious" doughnuts.[6] Portland Monthly has said, "Coco Donuts excels at the classics. Raised. Cake. Jelly-filled. You won't find fancy glazes or gimmicky shapes here, just a killer apple fritter and fresh, house-roasted coffee."[14]
