COFE App is an online coffee marketplace designed to cater to coffee enthusiasts worldwide. It provides a platform for accessing a wide range of international coffee franchises and artisanal coffee brands, offering services such as coffee delivery, pickup, and a subscription model for home coffee products
Founded by Ali Al-Ebrahim in 2018, COFE App launched in Kuwait and has since expanded its operations to include Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, and Turkey, with plans for further international expansion. The app was conceptualized to consolidate coffee-related services into a single platform, addressing the growing demand for specialized marketplaces.
COFE App has successfully raised significant funding to support its growth and expansion. The company completed a Series B funding round, raising $15 million, with investments from entities such as Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) and Alibaba-backed eWTP Arabia Capital. This funding is aimed at enhancing its e-commerce capabilities and supporting international expansion efforts.
