Meet the Company...
From humble beginnings in rural Dorset to leading the way in sustainable coffee innovation, our journey has always been guided by one simple belief — that great coffee should do good for both people and the planet.
Founded in 2009, 918 Coffee Co began as a small, passionate roasting business with a big ambition: to craft exceptional coffee while minimising our environmental footprint. What started with a love for flavour and quality soon grew into a mission to redefine how coffee is produced, roasted and enjoyed.
As our business evolved, so did our responsibility. In 2013, we pioneered the revolutionary Eco Roast technology — a breakthrough system that transforms used coffee grounds into energy to fuel the roasting process. This circular model not only reduced waste but set a new standard for sustainable roasting in the UK coffee industry.
With our commitment to innovation and transparency gaining recognition, we expanded beyond roasting to support other coffee brands and businesses in achieving their own sustainability goals.
This vision led to the creation of the Just In Coffee Group, bringing together like-minded brands under one umbrella dedicated to ethical sourcing, environmental stewardship, and industry excellence.
By 2022, our dedication to doing better was formally recognised when 918 Coffee Co became one of the world’s highest-scoring B Corp certified coffee companies — a milestone that celebrates our unwavering commitment to people, planet and purpose.
Today, as part of the Just In Coffee Group, we continue to push boundaries. From bespoke coffee solutions and private-label roasting to trade support, machinery, and training, we partner with businesses who share our belief that sustainability and quality should go hand in hand.
Our story is still being written — one cup, one innovation, one partnership at a time. And while the world of coffee continues to evolve, our mission remains the same: to brew a better future for everyone.
