Please have a look around and if you need to know anything else, please get in touch and we'll be happy to help.
In 2006 having spent a number of years supplying coffee and equipment to businesses in London, our founder, Richard, felt that it was about time Brighton had decent coffee. With this in mind he went about setting up the company with the intention of supplying beautifully roasted coffee to Brighton and the surrounding areas.
Since then we have grown steadily and organically to where we are today. With a friendly team of 8 we continually strive to offer perfectly roasted beans with a high level of customer service to all our customers. Hopefully, that is, or will be, you.
We are an accredited Jura partner, selected for our customer-focused approach to business, responsible for the counties of Sussex, Surrey and Kent.
roasted is an ethical company and understands that not everyone has an easy time growing and harvesting coffee, so we like to promote and supply fairtrade orientated products wherever possible.
Richard is the boss and a great guy. He oversees everything and always likes to know exactly what’s going on, even down to what we are eating for lunch! Working very long hours, it’s sometimes suggested he’s forgotten where his home is. Such is the dedication and determination that continues to drive roasted to be the ‘go to’, premier coffee and related product supplier in the South. He loves coffee and lots of it!
Nicole is roasted's very own Miss ‘Money Penny’ who keeps us on track, whilst also making sure all of our valued customers receive a first class, professional service. She keeps our databases up to date so we never miss a thing. While even Nicole would admit she’s not a coffee addict like the rest of us, she is slowly increasing her caffeine intake with a half shot Latté in the morning, (no judgement here) although you’re more likely to find her with a Hot Chocolate covered in marshmallows!
Our Operations Manager. He’s the fella you need to talk to if you ever have problems with your machines; he organises our network of engineers to keep your business running smoothly. Andy has been at roasted from the early days and as a result has helped to build up our loyal and valued customer base.
He continues to be out and about on the frontline of the operation ensuring our customers have the best coffee and products available. Andy always enjoys a Flat White or two in the morning, ensuring he’s firing on all cylinders.
Rafael is roasted’s Warehouse Manager, single-handedly managing all our stock, from coffee through to machines. He ensures that availability of product is always optimised, so that all our valued customers have what they want at the proverbial drop of a hat. He is a coffee nut, or should that be bean, like all of us and is very partial to a Macchiato.
Our parts and service department is all the better for Duncan's professional management and control, which in turn helps us to respond quickly to our customers needs when a machine isn't working quite as it should.
Our graphic designer, who has been with us since the very beginning. He is in charge of ideas and making sure everything printed and online looks as lovely as possible. You probably won’t meet him, but he’s definitely thinking about you. He’s a French press expert.
Helping our community
At roasted, we like to help those less fortunate than us. That is why we supply Off The Fence with Fairtrade coffee for their wonderful Antifreeze project.
The Antifreeze team serves the needs of those who are sleeping rough or who are inadequately housed in the Brighton and Hove area. Five nights a week during the winter months, and three nights a week during the rest of the year, the team goes out onto the streets to help these people.
