Our Story

Our Brand

&black was born in Auckland, New Zealand a place where creativity, culture, and community come together. From the start, we believed coffee is more than a drink; it’s a bridge that connects people, stories, and ideas.

Our name and mark capture that spirit. The ampersand stands for connection; the space where collaboration happens, while the bold line beneath it grounds the brand in stability, culture, and community roots. Together, they reflect what we stand for: a modern brand built on depth, balance, and belonging.

While our story began in New Zealand, our vision reaches further. We’re building a global community connected by coffee one that celebrates craft, culture, and human connection wherever it grows.

Grounded in Culture. Powered by Community.

For us, every cup is a celebration of where we come from and the people we share it with. We honor the rich coffee heritage of our origins while embracing the vibrant cultures we connect with along the way.

From local farmers who nurture our beans to the customers who savor each sip, our story is written together one cup at a time.
