Mövenpick Coffee

Mövenpick Kaffee is a premium coffee brand that carries the legacy of the Swiss Mövenpick group, founded by Ueli Prager in 1948. While the brand originated in Switzerland as part of the upscale restaurant and hospitality business, its coffee production has long been managed through strategic partnerships to ensure high-quality roasting and distribution standards.

Since 1980, the coffee brand has been produced and distributed under license by the German coffee roaster J.J. Darboven. This partnership combines Swiss heritage and recipes with German roasting expertise. In terms of ownership, the brand name 'Mövenpick' is a co-owned entity, but the coffee division operates as a key licensed product under J.J. Darboven's portfolio.

The beans are sourced from major coffee-growing regions worldwide, but the final processing and packaging primarily take place in Germany. The brand remains synonymous with Swiss quality, targeting the gourmet segment of the retail market.
