More About 't Koffie Jochie

’t Koffie Jochie has been active since 2021 and presents Utrecht as its home base. The official website only mentions founder and operator Thijs; no surname is listed. According to his own description, he started at the age of seventeen, during the pandemic, by selling hot chocolate from a bike in Máximapark. He later added coffee to the offering.

According to Thijs, the idea arose due to the increased crowds in the park. He investigated which product would be suitable for selling to visitors. His father then helped build the first coffee cart, without a formal business role being recorded.

A trade register aggregator links the trade name to the sole proprietorship Amici Food & Drinks, with KvK number 81877498. This registration lists Breda as the location and classifies the business under event catering. This differs from the Utrecht base communicated on the website.

Roasting Profiles and Coffee Offerings

The company notes that Thijs tasted dozens of espresso blends before developing his own. The range consists of four fixed names: Huisblend, Dark Roast, Light Roast, and Espresso Blend. While the business uses recognizable terms for different roasting directions, further technical details are missing.

The webshop sells the blends as whole coffee beans in 500-gram packages. Additionally, a trial pack is available, consisting of four 250-gram bags, totaling one kilogram of coffee. A subscription delivers 500 grams of a chosen blend every four weeks.

Public information does not mention coffee from individual countries, regions, or farms. Varieties, processing methods, seasonal lots, and decaffeinated products are also not listed. As a result, the range is primarily described based on blend and roast style.

Roasting and Origin

The events page states that the coffee is roasted in-house. However, which roaster, production location, or software is used is not publicly documented. Batch size, profile development, and quality control are also not described.

Regarding origin, the company only states that the green coffee beans come from outside the Netherlands. Producing countries, regions, plantations, cooperatives, and washing stations remain unknown. The same applies to importers, exporters, suppliers, and logistics partners.

There is also no public data on purchase prices, payments to producers, or long-term contracts. Claims about direct trade, fixed producer relationships, or fully traceable lots are not documented. For readers who value origin information, the public product information therefore offers little detail.

Sales, delivery, and subscriptions

Sales are conducted via the company’s own webshop and through the mobile coffee service. Orders are shipped from Utrecht via PostNL. The stated processing time is typically one to two business days, followed by a similar delivery time from the carrier.

The webshop delivers throughout the Netherlands. For Belgium, there is no fixed published rate; interested parties must request a separate shipping price. Wholesale customers, supermarkets, hospitality businesses, and other fixed points of sale are not publicly named.

Mobile service and events

No permanent café, shop, or public tasting room is documented. According to the website, the coffee bike is normally stationed on Sundays in Utrecht’s Máximapark, weather permitting. The mobile menu lists espresso, cappuccino, latte macchiato, and flat white.

The bike can be hired for events such as weddings, festivals, corporate gatherings, markets, and neighborhood parties in Utrecht and the surrounding area. The setup requires approximately two by two meters of space and, depending on the duration, one power connection. The mobile service uses a professional espresso machine for brewing.

In addition, the company offers a separate ice cream bike. The listed flavors are vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and stracciatella. Lactose-free or vegan options are available upon request. The service can be booked by time duration or by a set number of scoops.

Sustainability, Team, and Public Recognition

The bike minimizes space usage and is transported by bicycle, but broader environmental data is lacking. Information regarding packaging materials, waste separation, coffee grounds reuse, green energy, and emission targets is not publicly available. Certifications such as organic, Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance, or B Corp are also not documented.

Thijs is publicly visible as the founder, seller, blend developer, and contact person for events. Other roles or staff members are not named. An exact number of employees is also not published.

Finally, no prices, competition results, cupping scores, or reviews from trade media were found. Public courses, tastings, roasting workshops, and collaborations with other coffee companies are also not documented. As a result, the public profile focuses primarily on the coffee bike, four blends, online sales, and event service.
