What can you expect this year?
This platform has evolved into an intimate educational event to encourage the growth of our local industry and also to celebrate the work that is already taking place.
Our venue in Umhlanga, Durban, Acacia House is a multipurpose space that will include a lecture hall, an activation space and meeting rooms for doing amazing coffee networking.
We've got an incredible line up of speakers and sponsors coming your way at the end of July in Durban.
We will be focusing on innovation from South Africa, improving our sensory skills, learning more about the science of coffee, hardworking ways to make your coffee business better and expanding our idea of coffee culture.
The CCW Championship returns by popular demand and we also have another competition making its debut in South Africa! All will be revealed shortly.
