Founded in 2003 in Wellington, Mojo has grown from humble beginnings to operating over 20 cafes throughout New Zealand, becoming one of the country’s most experienced and iconic café operators. Despite their expansion and reputation for delivering exceptional coffee, Mojo’s core values have remained steadfast, focusing on their commitment to their staff, customers and suppliers. The business thrives on training and developing its staff, providing the support needed for them to upskill and succeed, with many support office staff starting their careers in the cafes. At Mojo, coffee is more than a beverage – it is a craft, and it’s clear how dedicated the team is to providing high-quality coffee to every customer. This commitment to people and quality makes Mojo more than just a regular coffee brand.

Commitment to Quality and Community

Mojo’s commitment to exceptional coffee and a stellar experience means they carefully select alternative milks that meet their high standards and delight their customers. That is why we’re thrilled that Barista Federation’s Coconut Milk has earned a permanent spot in their line up!

Our crowd-favourite Coconut Milk is designed to perfectly complement coffee – with a velvety mouthfeel, subtly sweet taste and balanced coconut flavour. As with all our Barista Federation plant milks, it froths, heats and blends seamlessly, offering a beautiful and glossy pour.

The Perfect Partnership:

Mojo and Barista Federation

We’ve gotten amazing feedback from Mojo’s baristas and customers – who appreciate the subtle sweetness of our coconut milk that balances the coffee without overpowering the rich coffee flavour. A Mojo barista shares, “I really like how Barista Federation’s coconut milk adds depth and a smooth, rounded flavour to the coffee, creating a different sensory experience compared to dairy milk.” Since the introduction of our Coconut Milk Mojo stores have seen the demand for coconut milk increase, with it being a staple in not only coffees, but also hot chocolates, matcha lattes and more.

Celebrating Barista Excellence

To celebrate this exciting partnership, we wanted to co-host a latte art competition, showcasing the exceptional skills of Mojo’s baristas and the versatility of Barista Federation’s Coconut Milk. Mojo often hosts in-house coffee competitions and events to foster healthy competition and spread creativity and excitement among staff from different stores, a tradition that we wanted to help keep thriving.

We had many amazing submissions that highlighted the artistry and craftsmanship that goes into every cup of Mojo coffee. Each submission was nothing short of impressive, with many intricate and creative designs.

While the competition was fierce, we were able to narrow it down to two winners. Max’s astounding latte art dragon captivated everyone with its immense detail and creativity, and Ava’s wide range of creations impressed us with their sheer quantity and artistry. This event not only celebrated the talents of Mojo’s baristas but also underscored the synergy between Mojo and Barista Federation in pushing the boundaries of coffee excellence.

Mojo’s collaboration with Barista Federation marks a significant milestone in our journey to deliver unparalleled coffee experiences. We are proud to be a part of the Mojo story and contribute to their mission of making extraordinary coffee every day. Together, Mojo and Barista Federation are raising the bar for coffee excellence in New Zealand, one cup at a time.
