A Unique Approach

Entirely dedicated to trade level private label coffee sales, 100% of our effort goes towards being the best roastery our customers never had. Consequently, we share our customers success agenda free of conflict of our own brand or end consumer business.

Collaborative volume affords our customers the highest level of facilities, choice and quality control, whilst enjoying unrivaled individual flexibility to develop their own product range and branding, whatever their size. All backed up by over 30 years of expertise and market experience.

Coffee Sourcing

Quality starts with the cultivation of the bean and Masteroast sources over fifty different types and grades from the three major regions of Central/South America, Africa and Asia and beyond.
Our people and network of professionals understand that good coffee is good business. We build strong working relationships to secure reliable, sustainable supplies of high quality coffees on ethical terms, including Fairtrade, Organic and Rainforest Alliance Certified Coffees.


This programme has lead us to visit many origins over recent years, including:

Central/South America - Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Panama, Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, Cuba

Africa - Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Ethiopia

Asia - India, Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi

This ensures not only great coffees, but also the great story behind them.
The raw coffee is transported by sea directly from the countries of origin to our bonded warehouse on the River Thames, using sealed shipping containers within which the environment is controlled to our exacting standards.
Once landed the coffee is brought up to our roastery in Peterborough every week where it is quality checked and cleaned before being stored for use in one of our 40 dedicated silos.

Matching/Sampling

Our wide range of coffees mean that we can offer our partners whatever blend of coffee they want, whatever their business model, palate and budget.
We also offer a full coffee matching and sampling service and look to educate and encourage our customers participation and thereby "ownership" of their blends.

Roasting

At the heart of our 40,000 sq. ft. facility are 3 different roasting systems representing the art and science of coffee roasting and offering unrivaled roast styles, replication (profile roasting) and batch size flexibility, all freshly batch roasted on a "roast to order" basis. Whether your business needs large or small quantities, drum roasting, high yield roasting or even micro roasting of specialty lots, we apply our considerable expertise and care all backed up by the highest accredited quality control systems.

With nine packaging lines we can offer the widest range of options in the UK coffee industry. Whether our client wants a 7g espresso grind sachet or a bulk 500kg sack we can offer it all.
