What started as a passion project in a shipping container has brewed into something extraordinary. Coffee Container began with a simple mission: bring exceptional specialty coffee to Scotland's markets and shows, one cup at a time. Armed with our signature house blend and a converted shipping container, we set out to prove that great coffee doesn't need a traditional café – it needs heart, quality, and a bit of adventure.
The journey hasn't always been smooth, but it's been incredibly rewarding. From early morning market setups to late-night equipment maintenance, every challenge taught us something new about our craft and our community. When we were named Scotland Young Trader of the Year, it was validation that our dedication to quality and innovation was resonating with coffee lovers across the country.
That recognition helped us secure our first permanent location in Bishopton – a dream we'd been chasing since day one. But we're not stopping there. With locations two and three on the horizon, Coffee Container is growing, and we couldn't be more excited about what's ahead.
Our roots in mobile units keep us grounded and adventurous, reminding us that great coffee is about connection, not just location. Whether we're serving from our permanent spot or rolling up to your favourite market, we're committed to the same award-winning quality that got us here.
