One for the coffee lovers 

 

What do we know about coffee?

 

In 2008 the UK was drinking 70 million cups of coffee a day. Today we are said to be drinking a whopping 95 million cups of coffee per day!

 

Some more interesting coffee facts…

 

  • UK consumers spend over £4bn in high-street coffee shops

  • Latte has claimed the top spot as UK’s most popular choice of coffee, with cappuccino, americano and flat white close behind. 

  • Millennials and Gen Z account for 16% of all coffee drinkers in the UK

  • 80% of coffee drinkers in the UK visit a coffee shops once per week

  • 16% of UK coffee drinkers visit a coffee shop at least once per day


What does all that tell us? People (our audiences) love coffee! And what better branded gift to give someone than an item that they can and will use, which revolves around a daily activity that they love to do?!

Branded merchandise for coffee lovers

We have a range of stand alone items, products which can be paired up or we can create and distribute bespoke hampers of coffee related goodies, all of which can be branded.

A branded coffee themed gift for on-the-move or in the office:

There are so many options when it comes to our choice of coffee container! For the more sustainable option, go for a coffee cup which can be used on the move and refilled in coffee shops. Only 1 in 400 coffee cups are recycled! We throw away more than 2.5 billion disposable coffee cups annually in the UK (2021).

The benefits of taking a coffee break at work

Coffee breaks can also be screen breaks, although there are no official rules on screen breaks, HSE.org guidance tells us to take short screen breaks often, rather than longer breaks less frequently throughout the working day.

Stepping away from the desk can be good for posture and stretching your legs for a walk to the kettle, coffee machine or cafe.

Coffee breaks can encourage workplace friendships or the time to chat when it doesn’t have to be all about work.
