Founded in 2011, The Coffee House, known for its roasting, baking, and fresh food production, has rapidly expanded to 40 locations across the Northwest, establishing itself as the leading coffee operator in England.
Solomon Commercials refrigerated vehicles are designed to maintain optimal temperatures, helping The Coffee House preserve the flavour, texture, and nutritional quality of their coffee and food, ensuring customers always receive fresh, high-quality products.
These new IVECO Daily trucks are equipped with Solomon refrigerated bodies, further enhancing the company’s existing fleet. Each 7.2-tonne IVECO Daily features a GAH JD501F direct-drive refrigeration unit, with Three Phase standby and in-cab control, as well as dual temperature evaporators. To meet their specific needs, we’ve also included a custom racking system for totes and a 4-camera system with recording for added safety.
The vehicles come with Solomon’s multi-fin thermal seals on all doors, polished stainless steel full-height locking bars, heavy-duty hinges, and a polished stainless steel rear aperture framework. Additional features include door retainers, aluminum kick strips on the inside face of the doors, and interior release mechanisms.
Adding these additional temperature-controlled vehicles to their fleet is a clear testament to The Coffee House’s growth and the increasing demand for their exceptional coffees.
Chris Shelmerdine, Managing Director at The Coffee House, commented,
” As we continue to expand our reach throughout the North of England, we must service our stores safely and on time while ensuring we maintain the quality of the products we produce.
Our partnership with the Solomon’s team allows us to work closely on our individual processes to ensure that our teams have the best experiences within their roles, which naturally complements our ambitions around the end customer experience. ”
Matthew Jones, Sales Manager at Solomon Commercials, said.
“ Our long-standing partnership with The Coffee House has been highly rewarding. It’s been exciting to see their growth into the UK’s leading coffee operator, and we’re proud to play a part in ensuring the exceptional quality of their products is maintained throughout distribution. ”
