 “As a Group, we believe in shaping local dining culture. As consumers, we have become much more cosmopolitan, and are increasingly in search of sophisticated experiences that we can recreate at home – experiences like those as cherished in our Artcaffé Coffee & Bakery restaurants. We recognize that a physical outlet offers customers the opportunity for interaction and discovery, and a place filled with joy and value.  It is with this ethos that our signature 8000sq ft store has been created”.

Artcaffé opened its first restaurant in 2008. The Group also operates a sophisticated central bakery, kitchen, and logistics center that prepares and distributes artisanal baked goods, food, and drink shipments to its restaurants daily. The central kitchen is key to the company’s business model, enabling consistent delivery of fresh and high-quality products.

The group’s family of 1,300 dedicated and passionate staff is expected to grow at a rate of around 40 new hires per new store opening. The management team all of whom have been with the company for more than 8 years, started as waiters, cooks, and cleaners, and today are holding key management positions ranging from logistics, store managers, regional operation managers, and more.

Future growth plans for The Artcaffé Market include prime new locations on Kiambu Road and Gigiri.
