Barista Catering Messe

Barista Catering Messe: baristas who work your booth

A great machine makes coffee. A great barista makes your stand the place visitors stay, talk and come back to.

One fair day, hour by hour

What it actually looks like when ExpoBaristi runs the bar on your stand.

08:30

Doors still closed

The crew is already in. The La Marzocco is hot, the grinder is dialed in, branded cups are stacked and the counter is polished before your team drops their bags.

10:00

The morning rush

Espresso scent drifts into the aisle and the queue starts. A queue reads as buzz, and buzz pulls more people in. We keep it moving at 100 to 150 drinks per hour.

13:00

Hosting the world

A buyer from Milan, an engineer from Osaka, a distributor from Chicago. Our baristas greet them in English and German, more languages on request, and learn who on your team they should meet.

16:30

The quiet hour

Slow minutes are working minutes. The barista chats with lingering visitors, asks what brought them to the fair, and walks them over to your sales people. Then we restock for tomorrow.

When the aisle floods, we hold the line

Every fair has its surge: the keynote ends, a delegation arrives, the rain starts outside the hall. This is the moment most coffee corners break and most stands go quiet. Ours is built for it. One barista station serves 100 to 150 quality drinks per hour, so the queue stays short enough to join and lively enough to create buzz. For large stands at drupa, MEDICA or interpack we simply add a second station and a second crew.

Your brand, our aprons

Visitors should remember your company, not your caterer. Before the fair we agree a dress code that fits your stand: our aprons and crew styling blend into your brand world, your logo goes on the cups, and on request we pour it into the foam. The crew gets a short briefing on your products, so the small talk at the counter points in the right direction.

  • Branded cups with your logo
  • Logo on foam as a photo moment
  • Crew dress code matched to your stand design
  • Product briefing before doors open

Questions exhibitors ask before they book

How many drinks can one station handle at peak?

100 to 150 quality drinks per hour, per station. If you expect more, we add a second station and crew. Your quote will say clearly which setup your visitor numbers need.

Which languages do your baristas speak?

English and German as standard, more languages on request. At Messe Düsseldorf 60 to 75 percent of visitors come from abroad, so hosting people in their language is the whole point of our service.

Can the crew match our corporate look?

Yes. We agree aprons and dress code with you in advance, print your logo on the cups, and can pour your logo into the milk foam.

What does the bar need from our stand?

One 230V socket. No water connection. The bar fits in roughly 2 x 1 meters, which works even on compact stands.

When do you set up?

Setup the day before the fair is possible, and full setup and breakdown are always included. On the morning of day one the machine is hot before the doors open.

We are exhibiting from abroad. How does booking work?

One short brief in English is enough. You receive a quote within 24 hours, and from there we handle everything on site, from logistics to the last cappuccino.
