The 20-year UAE homegrown brand reports a 19% revenue increase in 2025
UAE-born coffee company Coffee Planet is marking 20 years in the market, having built one of the region’s most integrated coffee operations and a growing multi-market presence.
Founded in the UAE in 2005, Coffee Planet began by supplying coffee through petrol station convenience stores. This early network laid the foundation for its expansion into wider retail and hospitality channels, further strengthened by the establishment of its Dubai roastery in 2008 to support growing demand.
Coffee Planet has now evolved into a full-service coffee provider, spanning roasting, distribution, retail, and technical services. Its UAE-based production model aligns with the country’s focus on supporting local manufacturing, enabling the company to maintain quality, consistency, and operational agility as it continues to scale.
This strategy is reflected in the company’s sustained growth trajectory over the past two decades. Coffee Planet recorded a 19% increase in revenue in 2025 and has maintained a 10.7% CAGR over the past decade. Today, the company serves more than 1,000 B2B clients across industries and delivers over 21mn cups of coffee each month across the GCC.
Service excellence
“Since the inception of Coffee Planet, we have focused on building a model that prioritises consistency, service excellence, and long-term partnerships. As the region continues to evolve, we are seeing a clear shift towards locally driven operations, and our UAE foundation allows us to respond quickly while maintaining quality at scale,” affirmed Allan Jones, Founder & Chairman.
Supported by the UAE’s ongoing initiatives to strengthen local manufacturing and business ecosystems, Coffee Planet’s local roasting capabilities have emerged as a key differentiator. At the centre of its operations is a 26,000sqft roasting facility in Jebel Ali, with an annual capacity of 5,000 tonnes, one of the largest single-site roasting operations in the UAE and among the highest in the GCC
As part of its 2026 growth strategy, Coffee Planet will introduce new roasteries in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, while continuing its expansion across the GCC, the UK, Egypt, and Pakistan, alongside entry into new markets such as Seychelles and Singapore.
