Thursday 26 November: The European Coffee Symposium and COHO Expo. The 17th Symposium looks at operators scaling fast and building a cult brand, then at convenience, scale and sustainability. COHO Expo continues throughout.

Who is in the room

Operators and suppliers attending include Costa Coffee, Caffè Nero, Tim Hortons, Hilton, Five Guys, Gail’s, Sodexo, Paul and Circle K, with Oatly, La Marzocco, BRITA, MONIN and Schaerer among the suppliers. On stage are heads of coffee and category from operators across Europe.

Innovations mapped to what customers want

Every product on the COHO Expo floor is tagged to one of seven consumer needs reshaping coffee and hospitality: speed of service, more choice, more convenience, new formats, more value, bespoke and personal, and craftsmanship. Buyers can filter by need or search by supplier or product before they arrive.

“The depth and quality of conversations far surpassed what is possible at a typical trade show.”
Head of Purchasing, Espresso Warehouse
