I have a small bakery, we wanted to introduce coffee and Lavazza is better coffee than all the rest, so Paula and her team at Alba responded quickly. The engineer surveyed the site, advised on installation, delivered, installed and trained us how to make truly great coffee. Our sales have grown and Alba make it so easy for us, I am very happy to recommend the company, and the coffee of course.

A working day varies at the theatres - but always starts with a coffee! So coffee served in our café, bars and at our events are of huge importance and demand flexibility, quality, consistency and speed of service. Alba provide all of this plus water dispensers in our foyers for customers and staff to access cold, fresh, filtered water quickly and conveniently.

A typical day in our Tea Room is coffee, coffee, coffee, Lavazza all the way, it certainly brings in customers, which, for us is extremely important. We find our working relationship with Alba Beverage very easy, comfortable and professional. Both ourselves and our customers value the Lavazza brand.

We're proud of ALBA for keeping our patients, parents, grandparents and staff caffeinated and warm all year round! Their delicious drinks, especially the hot chocolate, has become a favourite treat in our clinic. The ALBA team is extremely friendly and efficient, whether it's taking orders by phone or email making them an absolute pleasure to buy from. We're grateful to have ALBA as part of the Sunrise Dental experience and ensure that everyone gets their coffee fix without fail" -

As a recently recruited client of Alba Beverages, I have thus far been very happy with their products and services. They have the lovely Lavazza organic coffee I wanted, and every customer has commented on how delicious it is which is gaining us repeat clients. As a newly opened coffee shop we wanted to create the right offerings from the start and we feel that alba has been a very good match for us, even delivering last minute when we had underestimated our required order. I cannot recommend them enough.
