The Purley man who founded Costa won’t see any of the £3.9 billion it was sold to Coca-Cola for yesterday
Bruno Costa set up a coffee roastery in Lambeth with his brother Sergio in 1971 after being unable to “find a decent cup of coffee” in Britain.
Inspired by their parent’s café, Casa Mia, they opened their first coffee shop on Vauxhall Bridge Road in 1978
Bruno sold his share of the company to his brother in the mid-eighties so he could set up a small tableware company, meaning he never benefitted from the company’s future sales.
Costa Coffee went from strength to strength, and after being bought by Whitbread in 1995 for £23 million, it’s now one the most famous chains in the country. posted by Radio Jackie News Team @ 10:26 pm
