Quantum Coffee Roasters

Portfolio Assistant (Micro Loans)

We have grown the business a lot in less than a year and we naturally came back to the Development Bank when we needed finance to expand and set up the wholesale side of the business.

Katia Fotiadis, owner

Quantum Coffee Roasters is a family-owned and run coffee shop and roastery in Cardiff Bay.

The business used a £10,000 fast track micro loan from us to relocate its roastery from London to Cardiff.

Quantum then secured a second micro loan from us to expand. It has launched a new website which allows them to sell a wide range of coffee beans online. It is also growing its wholesale market, where customers will receive a full-service package. This includes purchase of machines, grinders and coffee beans, as well as barista training.
