Tynemouth Coffee Company was founded in 2009 by Paul Thompson on the North East coast of England, drawing on his 30-plus years of experience in the coffee industry. The business has grown to supply over 300 wholesale clients alongside thousands of home brewers, positioning itself across both volume blends and specialty single origins.

In a notable recent development, they launched a second roasting facility specifically dedicated to specialty single-origin coffees and seasonal micro-batches, housed at The Exchange 1856 and open to visitors. The two-site model allows them to maintain scale for wholesale supply while pursuing higher-end single-origin work separately.

They also run Elevate, a branded training platform aimed at baristas and home brewers.
