Roasting Plant Coffee outlines next phase of global expansion

Following a $10m capital raise and new CEO appointment at the end of 2024, Roasting Plant is back on the expansion trail with a new market debut in the pipeline

Just-roasted café concept Roasting Plant Coffee is embarking upon a new phase of international growth after signing a deal to enter one of Southeast Asia’s major tech hubs.

The specialty coffee roaster and café chain is best known for its automated Javabot technology – a patented in-store system that funnels freshly roasted coffee through pneumatic overhead tubes to Eversys super-automatic espresso machines behind the bar.

Opening its first store in New York in 2007, Roasting Plant currently operates eight stores across the US and, after making its UK debut in 2019, five stores in London.
