Coffee Planet, a UAE-born specialty coffee company with nearly two decades of experience serving delicious brew in the region, has expanded its presence to Etihad Plaza Abu Dhabi.
The expansion is true to its stated philosophy of making specialty coffee accessible to all – across the Middle East and further.
The new facility in Abu Dhabi features a corporate office, showroom, café and training facility that began operations in the last week of January.
Why Abu Dhabi?
While Dubai has always been the home of Coffee Planet, known to the communities it serves – from grabbing a coffee on-the-go, to relaxing in a hotel, through to finding their range of specialty coffee products across hundreds of supermarkets, as part of its mission the coffee company and brewer is strengthening its presence in the capital.

Jamie Brown, CEO, Coffee Planet explained, “Abu Dhabi is solidifying its position as a formidable business hub in the UAE. The emirate’s commitment to diversification, innovation, and fostering a business-friendly environment has attracted a surge of local and international enterprises, propelling it into the spotlight as a key player in the global business landscape.”
He added that “This move will give Coffee Planet a strategic presence in the capital city.”
Coffee Planet’s accredited campus
The SCA-accredited campus by Coffee Planet will be their second learning facility in the UAE, after Dubai.
It will allow coffee lovers and budding baristas to turn their passion into a profession, and professional baristas to further enhance their skills. It will also feature a state-of-the-art showroom and office facilities designed to welcome new and existing partners.
Coffee-lovers and aficionados can head to the Etihad Plaza Abu Dhabi from February 1 to grab their daily cuppa.
