Muffin Break coffee and bakery products

Muffin Break is a global bakery-café franchise that originated as a concept in Canada during the 1970s. However, the brand as it is known today was significantly refined and expanded by the Australian company Foodco Group, which acquired the rights and opened its first modern-style store in Coolangatta, Queensland, in 1989.

Regarding manufacturing, Muffin Break operates under a fresh-bake model. Unlike many competitors that use central commissaries, Muffin Break prides itself on the fact that its muffins and savory items are baked fresh on-site daily at each individual franchise location. This means the country of 'manufacture' for the food items is the country where the specific café is located (primarily Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom). Their signature coffee blend is crafted from Arabica beans sourced from multiple origins, including Ethiopia, India, Brazil, and Mexico, which are then roasted in specialized facilities before being distributed to stores.
