Description
Redemption Roasters is on a mission to reduce reoffending rates through coffee.

We believe exceptional coffee can come from people and places you wouldn’t expect; at our roastery in HMP The Mount, we train offenders in coffee industry skills with the aim of reducing reoffending in the UK. Upon release, we help our graduates find work in our own coffee shops, or within our network.

As a social enterprise, we think differently to other specialty coffee companies; we strive for profit in order to achieve our purpose. Every member of the Redemption Roasters team has a role to play in achieving that purpose; to challenge perceptions and change lives through speciality coffee.

From bean to cup we are committed to being socially responsible. We build long-term relationships with producers and supply chain partners whose quality, provenance, sustainability and ethics match our values. The result is a finely crafted cup of coffee which raises the bar for everyone.

We roast for over 150 wholesale clients, operate ten coffee shops in Central London, and run an ecommerce store. This is a really exciting time to be joining Redemption - in the next 6 months, we are opening up to three new coffee shops, a new HQ and a second out-of-prison training centre. We are also working with more ex-offenders and other beneficiaries than ever before.
