The home of good coffee

High-quality coffee for offices and businesses—that’s the promise Kaffee Partner has been delivering since 1973.

Our promise

We are your partner“ is more than just a promise to us. It is our standard to be close by: to the people, to the requirements on site, and to what needs to work in day-to-day operations. That is why we do not think in terms of individual products, but in processes that sustain you in your daily routine.

In doing so, we focus on quality, clarity, and binding collaboration. Personal, practical, and with strong regional roots, we create relationships that work long-term. This is how supply turns into partnership.

Our Values

Our values provide guidance—in our daily work, in how we interact with one another, and in our collaboration with our customers. They help us make clear decisions and take responsibility.

We focus on reliability, openness, and honest collaboration. We take a solution-oriented approach, think practically, and stay focused on what really matters in everyday life. This is how trust is built—step by step and with every collaboration.

Partnership

Partnership means reliability. We treat everyone as equals—with respect, fairness, and a sense of responsibility.

Team Spirit

Team spirit—the heart of Kaffee Partner. We foster a genuine sense of togetherness through mutual support, motivation, and a trusting working relationship.

Appreciation

Mutual respect brings us together. Treating one another with honesty and respect is just as important to us as showing a genuine interest in the people around us.

Passion

Passion, enthusiasm, dedication. We are passionate about our products and services, and we work together to achieve success.

Solution-Oriented Approach

We are enablers. Constructive, optimistic, pragmatic. Where there are challenges, we find solutions.

Openness

Curiosity drives us. We seek out new perspectives, ideas, and experiences. Honest feedback and transparency help us get better every day.

Jörg Baumgart – CEO Kaffee Partner

Jörg Baumgart possesses many years of experience in the food market on both a national and international level. He had been with apetito since 2007, serving as a board member since 2012. Previously, the graduate economist and financial expert spent ten years with the Thyssen-Krupp Group, holding positions such as commercial director in Romania and Germany as well as head of controlling in France. Even though he prefers his coffee black, he enjoys a cappuccino every now and then.

Roger Lang – CFO Kaffee Partner

Roger Lang brings impressive expertise from his many years of experience in internationally oriented corporate groups. He had been with PartyLite since 2013, serving as Director Finance for the DACH region. Prior to that, he spent nine years at ADP Dealer Services as Director Finance & Controlling, before joining Kaffee Partner in July 2021 as Director Finance, Controlling, Legal & IT. Even away from the numbers, Roger values direct communication – whether within the team, in projects, or over a good cup of coffee.
