Press release -
Löfbergs want to roast coffee in downtown Stockholm
A coffee roaster in downtown Stockholm? Yes, that can become a reality if Löfbergs has it its way. The family-owned coffee roaster is looking for premises, where it can roast as well as serve coffee.
- We have heard that a big international coffee chain is establishing in Stockholm, but we believe that there is room for a familiar Värmlander as well, says Leif Sjöblom, marketing manager at Löfbergs.
A new “coffee scraper”?
Löfbergs was founded in 1906 and is one of the largest family-owned coffee roasters in the Nordic countries. The production is equivalent to ten million cups of coffee a day. The head office is situated in Karlstad, where the 45 metres tall “coffee scraper” is a landmark. The roasting-house in downtown Stockholm is not intended to be that big.
- No, this is supposed to be a micro roaster and a really great café with a touch of Värmland. A place for everyone in Stockholm who wants to make, taste and learn more about coffee - or that just want to relax for awhile, says Leif Sjöblom.
- We are looking for premises that are between 100 and 200 square metres big, in downtown Stockholm. We expect to be up and running sometime next year.
