It all began in Patras, in 1999. There, our love for specialty coffee drove us to establish our company.
We decided to establish our own coffee processing plant, investing in equipment and know-how, mainly from Italy.
In 2009, Cyprus welcomes the first Coffee Island shop.
We built two state-of-the-art coffee processing and packaging units in Patras and expanded our existing warehouses. Investing in mechanical equipment enabled us to ensure the highest quality in the context of a given increase in production resulting from the continued expansion of our network.
We continued upwards, constantly expanding our network.
We dynamically entered the UK market, launching our first Coffee Island coffee shop in London.
We expanded across the Atlantic by opening the 1st Coffee Shop in Toronto, Canada.
In 2019 the unit was refurbished and another roastery was installed. Now, Coffee Island, a Greek company, operates on 3 major continents, opening in the United Arab Emirates, in Dubai.
Coffee Island is now located in Yverdon, Switzerland. The new store is located in the heart of the brand new and multifunctional center EXPLORiT Business & Services. 2 Coffee Island robots contribute to the visitor experience.
The 2nd Coffee Island store in Dubai is a fact, while another market is on the map. From December, Romania "serves" Coffee Island specialty coffee.
The year begins with the expansion to another continent. The first store in Cairo, Egypt opened its doors.
