HISTORY OF COSTA COFFEE

In 1971, two brothers, Bruno and Sergio Costa created the Mocha Italia Blend and started selling to businesses in the UK. A few years later, in 1978, the two brothers opened the first Costa Coffee in London.

Costa offers always the same unique blend of coffee with beans that have been roasted in London. Costa focuses on the quality and does not offer a coffee that does not make the grade.

Today, with more than 1300 coffee shops in the UK, Costa is the largest coffee shop chain in the UK. Costa is also the second largest chain worldwide with more than 600 coffee shops in 30 countries.
