Modern Standard Coffee Partnership
Delice de France and Modern Standard Coffee Partner to Deliver Premium Coffee Experiences to Independent Retailers
Delice de France has announced a new collaboration with Modern Standard Coffee, one of the UK’s leading female-founded coffee roasters, to bring high-quality, ethically sourced coffee to convenience and foodservice retailers across the country.
This partnership allows Delice de France customers to order premium speciality coffee beans in 12 x 1kg bags, each yielding around 55 cups of coffee.
“Hot beverages are a high-margin, high-footfall category for independent convenience retailers,” said Thierry Cacaly, President of Delice de France. “They offer a daily reason for customers to return, helping build loyalty. By introducing speciality coffee, retailers can differentiate themselves from supermarkets and discounters with a focus on quality, provenance, and experience.”
Modern Standard Coffee brings deep industry expertise, a transparent and ethical supply chain, and award-winning products such as its Momentum Espresso. Their beans are 100% Arabica, ethically sourced, and roasted in the UK to deliver a consistent, high-quality cup every time.
“Customer demand has grown significantly in the past year, particularly for premium, bean-to-cup options,” Thierry added. “People want barista-quality drinks on the go, along with sustainable and traceable sourcing. That’s exactly what this partnership delivers.”
With a self-serve coffee solution that looks and feels premium, Delice de France is helping retailers create a café-style offer without the overhead. Options like coffee and pastry bundles, seasonal drinks, and cold brews can help drive basket spend and repeat business.
“Even in a small store footprint, retailers can create a high-quality coffee experience, It’s about more than the product — it’s about ambience, quality cues, and pairing great coffee with complementary treats.”
This collaboration forms part of Delice de France’s mission to empower retailers with branded, premium food and drink solutions, backed by full training, support, and servicing to ensure operational ease and maximum profitability.
