More Than another wholesale coffee provider
At Coaltown Coffee, we believe great partnerships are built on more than exceptional coffee. As a UK-based specialty coffee roaster and certified B Corporation, we supply award-winning wholesale coffee to cafés, restaurants, hotels and retailers who value quality, consistency and purpose.
Having built our own thriving espresso bars, we understand the realities of hospitality and what it takes to stand out. We see every wholesale customer as a long-term partner, combining exceptional specialty coffee with the expertise, support and sustainability knowledge needed to help independent businesses flourish.
Together, we're redefining what coffee can achieve.
What Type Of Business Are You?
Opening a café or hospitality business is one of the most exciting journeys you can take, but it's also one of the most challenging. Having built Coaltown from a small South Wales roastery into a network of successful espresso bars, we've experienced the realities of starting, growing and refining a coffee business ourselves.
We're here to share that experience. From site planning and café layout to menu development, equipment selection, workflow optimisation and building a profitable coffee programme, we'll help you make informed decisions from day one. Our support is practical, honest and tailored to your ambitions.
Changing coffee supplier can feel like a big decision, but it doesn't have to be a difficult one. Whether you're looking to improve coffee quality, receive more hands-on support or partner with a roaster that better reflects your values, we'll make the transition as smooth as possible. From selecting the right coffees and equipment to training your team and fine-tuning your coffee offering, we'll support you every step of the way.
Our approach is built on partnership, not contracts. We take the time to understand your business, minimise disruption and ensure your customers continue to enjoy an exceptional coffee experience from day one. With award-winning specialty coffee, expert technical support and a team that genuinely cares about your success, switching to Coaltown is an investment in the future of your business.
Managing multiple locations requires more than consistently great coffee. It demands dependable supply, operational consistency and a partner who understands the complexities of scaling a hospitality business. Whether you're expanding an established estate or bringing existing sites under one coffee programme, we work closely with your team to deliver a seamless transition with minimal disruption.
From tailored coffee solutions and equipment planning to barista training, technical support and ongoing account management, we help ensure every location delivers the same exceptional customer experience. With flexible logistics, dedicated support and a collaborative approach, Coaltown becomes an extension of your business, helping your brand grow while maintaining the quality and consistency your customers expect.
Coffee is often one of the final touchpoints of a guest's stay, and one they'll remember. Whether served at breakfast, in-room, at the bar or in a restaurant, exceptional coffee has the power to elevate the overall guest experience. We work with hotels to develop coffee programmes that reflect the same quality and attention to detail found throughout their hospitality offering.
From selecting the right coffees and installing premium espresso equipment to staff training, technical support and ongoing account management, we provide everything needed to deliver consistently exceptional coffee across every service area. With reliable supply, flexible solutions and award-winning specialty coffee, we help hotels create memorable moments that encourage guests to return.

From when we first opened to now, our coffee orders have only increased. The Team at Coaltown have never pushed us but have supported us along the way.

Adrian ~ BEAT ~ Bridgend
"We want to be able to provide a premium product and a quality product. You can see how busy we are today; people appreciate the quality we provide. We’re not everyone’s cup of tea and I get that, there are multiple other places they can get coffee. But I’m confident in saying this: you won’t get a coffee like how we make one, anywhere in this area. This is down to the staff, equipment, beans and how we process our coffee.
It’s been a great relationship from start to finish. Long may it continue."
