The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the Truman Brewery in east London, where the London Coffee Festival ran from Thursday to Sunday, bringing together roasters, baristas, cafe owners, equipment makers and packaging suppliers from across the industry.
Amid the busy booths and tasting counters, Chinese exhibitors stood out not only for their coffee beans, but also for their tea drinks, sustainable packaging and coffee machines. Their presence highlighted how Chinese companies are moving beyond single-product offerings and becoming involved in more segments of Europe's coffee consumption chain.
