Caber Coffee

Caber Coffee combines coffee, machines, and business support from Aberdeen. Dughall and Maureen Leask founded the company in 1988 to make specialty coffee and equipment available to Scottish businesses. It retains that combination of product and service: supplying a café, hotel, visitor attraction, garden center, or office requires choosing both the drink and how it will be prepared.

Coffee offerings include espresso beans, decaf, Fairtrade blends, and ground coffee in sachets or filter formats. Fino, Forza, Msaada, Premium Fairtrade, and South American Blend are among the choices. The company explains that its own-label coffee can be traced to cooperatives and producers, and some blends carry Fairtrade or Rainforest Alliance certifications. Those characteristics apply to the specific products carrying them.

The equipment catalog distinguishes espresso machines, bean-to-cup machines, filter and bulk-brewing systems, instant-coffee equipment, and grinders. Brands including Egro, Bravilor, Jura, Sanremo, Promac, Rancilio, and Marco represent different operating solutions. The selection allows equipment and service to fit the establishment, from a barista-operated counter to a self-service point.

Manufacturer-trained technicians install equipment, explain its functions, and calibrate it for the customer’s coffee and taste. Maintenance, technical support, and barista training complete the supply service. Short brewing tips and courses help incorporate machine use into everyday work rather than limiting the service to equipment delivery.

Teas and infusions, chocolate drinks, syrups, cups, stirrers, and other consumables broaden the supplies. Caber also carries Lavazza and Grumpy Mule offerings. Its Ethyco brand includes a commitment the company describes as donating two percent of ingredient sales to social-enterprise projects in its local area, alongside other charitable partnerships.

The business is based on Holburn Street in Aberdeen, with distribution extending to areas including Angus, Dundee, Moray, Tayside, and the Scottish Highlands and islands. Normal contact hours are on weekdays, supplemented by a permanent answering service and out-of-hours technical support on Saturdays and Sundays. That structure explains Caber’s role as a supplier: coffee, equipment, and service continuity for businesses with different needs.
