Our Story

Proudly independent. Connecting coffee and community since 2005.

Est.2005

Mozzo’s founder Grant Lang started sharing exceptional espressos from a wind- and solar-powered art-covered coffee cart on the streets of Southampton.

Coffee lovers flocking to the vibrant tuktuk celebrated the connection made over coffee and Mozzo’s early community initiatives – asking customers to vote monthly on support for local social causes.

Championing emerging talent, Grant also customised the coffee cart to display local artists’ work, a community-centered approach that drew attention from both regional and national press.

Expanding impact

2010 signaled Mozzo’s first own-roasted blend, known today as HOUSE, and from there Mozzo magic rocketed into leading hospitality hotspots nationwide. Continually looking to evolve the company’s community impact, the C2C Fund was officially established in 2015 – a fixed contribution per coffee sale built directly into the business model.

Mozzo Coffee Bars

Marking another major milestone, 2025 saw the launch of Mozzo Coffee Bars in partnership with citizenM hotels. Designed to bring speciality coffee to a wider global audience, the first two locations opened in London and New York.

Today, magic is roasted into Mozzo’s carefully crafted collection of beans at our state-of-the-art roastery, Mozzo World.

Coffee-lifers, we’re an energetic crowd devoted to the bean, fueled by positivity and operating under the company’s 3 core pillars:

Coffee

Our vehicle for change. Responsibly sourced, small batch roasted and fanatical about service.

Community

United by a common goal for fairness; bringing people together through coffee and contributing for everyone’s benefit.

Connection

The Mozzo spirit – kick-starting conversation, fueling connections and witnessing our intention for change in action.
