Description

Kenco is a British instant coffee brand founded in 1923 by a co-operative of Kenyan farmers selling roast and ground coffee from a Mayfair shop, and now celebrating 100 uplifting years of great tasting coffee. Part of the JDE Peet’s portfolio recently acquired by Keurig Dr Pepper, the same parent company as Douwe Egberts already confirmed in this directory, Kenco is chosen by one in four UK households. Offering Core, Millicano, Refills, Origins, Classic Frothy Coffees, Iced Hot Lattes, Plant-based, and In 1 ranges with zero waste to landfill from its Banbury factory, Kenco products are consistent eBay UK and Amazon UK bestsellers with strong household repeat purchase demand.
