With Caffè Culture 2024 now only three months away, show organiser Living Media Events has announced this year’s trade show is set to be the largest one since being relaunched in 2018, as it welcomes back a host of leading international brands alongside some of the UK’s most cutting-edge companies.
The event, which takes place at London’s iconic Business Design Centre on 1 and 2 October, will see thousands of coffee shop owners and buyers from the multiples and high street chains come together to source, taste and test the very best products and services at the leading trade event for the UK’s speciality coffee and café bar market.
Featuring the full range of products and equipment needed to run a successful coffee shop, the show will showcase 100s of innovative new brands that include WMF & Schaerer (Seb Professional), Macap, Astoria & Mazzer (Traders of Surbiton), La Spaziale, Perfect Moose, PuqPress & PourSteady (Brew-it Group) and Water Filtration partner Brita who will be joining esteemed exhibitors such as Rocket Espresso, Unox, Brewed by Hand and Dalla Corte – the new equipment sponsor of the Roaster Zone.
With coffee excellence being at the very core of Caffè Culture, the show will be hosting the SCA’s Cup Tasting Final as well as the largest number of roasters at any UK trade event, giving an unparalleled opportunity for visitors to find their ideal coffee supplier.
The event has also experienced growth in two key areas – speciality tea and green been. This has largely been facilitated by the successful partnership with the European Speciality Tea Association, who will be hosting a full programme of talks and competitions within the show’s Speciality Tea Hub and the Roasters Forum, which this year welcomes equipment sponsor Roest who joins Sucafina Speciality as a partner of the two-day talks programme.
After two successful launches last year, United Baristas Founder Tim Ridley will once again be curating the Total Coffee programme – a two-day programme of talks aimed at empowering coffee shop owners and industry leaders, whilst FoodBev will be showcasing their award nominees in a beautifully designed gallery ahead of their ceremony at the show.
More features, partners and premium brands will be announced in the coming weeks, adding to the compelling and must-attend nature of the event.
