More About Café Y Más

Café Y Más is a Dutch private limited company registered as Café y Mas B.V. Records show the company was established on November 16, 2018, with its headquarters located in Wijchen, Gelderland. LinkedIn data also lists 2018 as the founding year and places the business in Wijchen, noting a staff size of between two and ten employees.

Origins and Background

The founding history primarily highlights Branko Godijk and Maarten de Klein. A 2023 LinkedIn post by Godijk describes how he embarked on a “coffee adventure” with Maarten de Klein five years prior. In company registry information, Maarten de Klein is listed as a co-founder and “Koffiebaas”.

The impetus for the company is linked in a 2019 article to customer inquiries regarding workplace coffee. Specifically, issues included malfunctioning machines, slow repair times, sluggish restocking, and coffee that was perceived as too weak. A profile from StartUp Nijmegen cites 2019 as the moment Branko Godijk added Café Y Más as a new venture, which differs slightly from the legal start date in 2018.

The Roastery and Process

Café Y Más presents its roastery as an integral part of its own operations. The company cites direct trade as its sourcing approach and speaks of direct relationships with coffee producers. However, the names of specific farms, cooperatives, or producer groups are not publicly documented in the available materials.

The documented roasting capacity consists of four coffee roasters: two 120kg roasters, one 50kg roaster, and one 12kg roaster. The specific manufacturers, model names, roasting software, and the name of the head roaster are not publicly disclosed. The company further mentions the use of both arabica and robusta beans, with LinkedIn text describing their roasting method as “slow roasting”.

Coffee Selection

The product range consists of various lines for commercial use and related applications. The whole bean line includes Superior, Leve, Picante, Moraira, Pica, and Team Picnic PostNL. Additionally, there is a freshbrew line featuring Poderoso, Rood, and Zilver. The instant coffees are listed as Strong and Superior Gold.

For Nespresso® Pro pods, Espresso, Ristretto, Lungo, Lungo Forte, and Espresso Decaf are listed. There is also a capsule line under the name Oceano Coffee, consisting of Espresso, Lungo, and Classico. These capsules are documented as 100% compostable and plant-based, with a base made from sugarcane and a top foil consisting of sugarcane-based cellulose.

Origin and Transparency

There is little concrete public information regarding the origin of current coffees. While the company mentions direct trade and direct relationships with producers, specific countries of origin are not named. Names of washing stations, exporters, importers, or cooperatives are also absent from the available documentation.

Public transparency reports, FOB prices, or farmgate prices are not documented. Furthermore, certifications such as Fairtrade, organic, Rainforest Alliance, B Corp, or SCA certification for the company have not been publicly established. No public data was found regarding waste policies, emission reporting, packaging reduction, or an annual sustainability report.
