Flavoured coffee maker Beanies is looking to rival industry heavyweights with the launch of compostable coffee pods.
The County Durham-based firm, which supplies major UK retailers and exports, is moving into the market with its Nespresso-compatible pods that come in vanilla, caramel and hazelnut flavours. Having picked up a Queen's Award for International Trade in 2022, Beanies will sell the products in the UK and its 35 export destinations.
Mark Stangroom, Beanies’ sales and marketing director, said: "After already having considerable success with our flavoured instant coffees, which culminated in receiving a Queen’s Award For International Trade last year, we saw an opportunity for coffee pods with ‘full-on-flavour’ both in the UK market and abroad. We’ve started with three classics, but, with over 40 flavours in instant, there’s plenty of room to expand the range further.”
