Tropic Coffee has been roasting in King's Lynn, Norfolk since 1983, founded by Martin Sanctuary after time working with a leading coffee producer in London. Now over 40 years old, the business remains family-owned and operates from the same Norfolk roastery where it started.

Alongside retail and wholesale supply, Tropic offers a private label service for lifestyle brands and hospitality businesses, bespoke blend development, and sells unroasted green coffee for home roasters. They describe their core roasting method as open flame drum roasting, a distinctive approach they call 'through the flame'.

Latte art workshops are also available at the King's Lynn site.
