Our mission is clear - to create progress through coffee. And while coffee is what makes it happen, it goes far beyond what’s in the cup. By giving everyone we work with - from the coffee farmers, to the baristas, to the customers - respect, support, and love, we want to push the industry forwards and create benefits for people, the community, and the world.
We don’t think great coffee should be a privilege. So, we source some of the most exciting beans on the market and roast them with care. This means you get unpretentious coffee that pushes the boundaries for the taste and quality you can expect of your coffee roaster.
We have a core range roasted to be exceptional with milk, but can easily stand up on their own. And our single origin programme is built to highlight the unique characteristics of coffee sourced from specific regions or farms. Head of coffee, Edgaras, selects fun, interesting, and unique beans and usually runs three to four single origin coffees at any one time. They’re typically changing quarterly, or with the coffee harvest seasons.
While we’re a special coffee roaster, that doesn’t mean we don’t care about all the other hot drinks you might be serving. We partner with Good & Proper Tea and Islands Chocolate to help you serve a whole range of drinks that create progress for their communities.
Equipment
We work with machine manufacturers like Victoria Arduino and La Marzocco to make sure that you get the best suited machine for your shop or cafe.
We partner with Victoria Arduino, not only because they offer industry-leading espresso machines, but also because of their commitment to the environment. And La Marzocco is an industry heavyweight who over the years have become synonymous with high-performance, barista-centric design.
Making sure you look after your machines and equipment is paramount to serving consistently exceptionally good coffees. We have a dedicated maintenance partner and can put together a comprehensive preventative and reactive maintenance programme that fits your needs.
OUR STORY
Mission Coffee Works was born from a desire to get the best beans to the best people and make sure they know what to do with them.
Originally starting as a street van in 2012, serving coffee to the people of Peckham, we decided to focus solely on roasting beans in 2018. We buy them green, roast them brown, get them to you and make sure you know what to do with them.
We have a long-standing commitment to leaving the world around us a little better than we found it. We are constantly working on ways to improve our impact and how we help our customers reduce their carbon footprint. You can read about some of our current initiatives below.
Electric Van & Reusable buckets
All of our London-based wholesale customers have the option to get their beans delivered in 4kg buckets with our own fully-electrical van. Once you’ve used all your coffee, we will collect the empty buckets with your next delivery and reuse them for other orders.
Delivery Partners
For those outside London, we ship our orders with APC who use fuel efficient vehicles and plan their deliveries to achieve the best route optimisation . We may also use Royal Mail where our parcels are added to already existing delivery routes.
Coffee Sourcing
We are fully aware that shipping coffee to the UK from around the world has a very high impact on carbon emissions. So we don’t get any coffee shipped by air and our sourcing partners commit to only importing full shipping containers.
We set out to benchmark our current sustainability efforts to give us a starting point for improvement. This resulted in our first impact report which you can read here.
