          The Founder

Michelangelo Franco, Creator of Franco Specialty Coffee, spent his entire coffee career mastering the art of brewing while learning about business, politics, economy and coffee trade. Back in 2011 Michelangelo travelled to London from Bari (Italy) to learn about Specialty Coffee. After four years of hard work in busy London cafes, he started to help coffee professionals to open their dream cafe. In 2014 Michelangelo travelled to Athenas (Costa Rica) to learn more about varietals, processing, certifications and trading laws. When back in the UK, in 2016 Michelangelo opened The Specialty Coffee Shop in Nottingham. The aim was to spread the love of specialty coffee in a city where there was no specialty coffee at that time. As other specialty cafes opened their doors for business, Nottingham soon became a very competitive market for coffee and known all over UK for its professionals and jobs opportunities.

                 About

Here at Franco Specialty Coffee we focus on discovering and sharing outstanding specialty grade coffees. We work with trusted and respected coffee importers who reflect our goals and values in the industry. Our main goal is to showcase the beautiful world of specialty coffee to everyone, with the mission of expanding the specialty coffee drinkers around the globe. Specialty coffee as a wedge of the industry faces big challenges such as prices paid to workers or farmers, environmental struggles such as landslides and bacterias and global warming, as well as facing big risky investments when it comes to delivering and producing particular coffee varieties and processing methods. We want to promote everyone in this industry. From those who are investing for innovation, to the farmers who do everything possible with little resourse and traditional practices, but still produce high quality coffees. Everyone deserves to be in the market, especially those who work hard. These are our pioneers and should never be allowed to fall. Franco Specialty Coffee is Michelangelo’s dream and vision since he became passionate about coffee. Franco Specialty Coffee is where Michelangelo will be investing all his energy to reach the goals of the company, for better coffee, and better sustainable future. What is coffee to Franco Specialty Coffee? Is a wonderful product produced with a global effort. How does Franco Specialty Coffee feel about this? It is our honour and responsibility to do our job with dedication and attention to detail. There are so many valued skills and dedicated services invested in the coffee before it gets to us. Therefore, we take our position very seriously, and try our absolute best to deliver the best possible cup of coffee from the green we buy.
