We’re proud to be supporting the continued growth of Bristol Twenty Coffee Company with an £80,000 funding package to expand their espresso machine rental portfolio.

Bristol Twenty is a family-run, independent business supplying ethically sourced, high-quality coffee to hospitality venues across the Southwest. Alongside their artisan roastery in Avonmouth, they help cafés, restaurants and hotels serve exceptional coffee without the high upfront cost of equipment which is backed by expert service and training.

𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽𝗲𝗱:
✔️ Increase their rental espresso machine fleet to 120+ machines
✔️ To meet growing demand from independent hospitality venues
✔️ Support internal investment in processing and white-label coffee packaging

The first machine funded through the deal is already live at Tapps Wine Bar in Bristol, with more installations planned, including Campden Coffee in Chipping Campden.

This partnership shows how the right finance, structured properly, can unlock growth quickly and confidently, not just for one business, but across an entire sector.

We all know that the Cornish pasty is the king of pasties 🤴

To celebrate National Cornish Pasty Week in Cornwall we've bought everyone in the office a pasty, and as we like to support our local traders, we purchased these delicious pasties from Prima Bakeries LTD in Redruth. 😋

I'm sure you agree they look delicious, and this is a National week we were happy to take part in!!
