Company Timeline

We think it’s no accident CoffeeWORKS is one of Thailand’s leading fresh coffee roasters. Since opening our doors CoffeeWORKS has been a key source in Thailand for authentic imported single origin and Thai Arabica coffees from Chiang Mai and the surrounding northern provinces. Chances are you may have enjoyed our coffees that supply the many coffee chains and small independent coffee shops that now infuse Thailand’s growing cafe culture.

Prior to building CoffeeWORKS in Thailand we worked in the US west coast coffee market when the specialist coffee shop business model was still populated by less than a dozen store fronts.

Since founding CoffeeWORKS, we have formed wide-ranging working relationships throughout the Italian coffee industry. Combined with our U.S. coffee background, we have absorbed a unique mix of US and European coffee industry culture. This combination of producer to consumer market experiences underpin our mission to serve customers as a continuously learning, roaster-focused supply chain partner.

At CoffeeWORKS the bean is the boss.
