At BioPak, we’re always looking for ways to drive positive change, not just through our products but in partnership with like-minded businesses. We’re proud of our continuous partnership with Allpress Espresso, a pioneer in coffee roasting and a company that shares our commitment to social accountability and responsible sourcing. Together, we’re taking a stand for both people and the planet by offering better solutions for the coffee industry.

Aligning with Allpress’ B Corp and Sustainability Goals

Allpress is on a journey to becoming a B Corporation, focusing on creating a fairer supply chain, reducing emissions, minimising its carbon footprint, and fostering an inclusive, safe environment for everyone. BioPak supports these sustainability goals by providing packaging solutions made from responsibly sourced materials, helping Allpress minimise its environmental impact. Together, we are working towards a circular economy that balances people, planet, and profit, while actively supporting Allpress’s mission to reduce waste and improve business practices across their café network.

Supporting Allpress’s Global Cafés Network

Exceptional flavour, beautiful design, and kinder materials—three things Allpress won’t sacrifice. Allpress has always been on a mission to find the most innovative materials to keep their coffee fresh and tasting its best while being kinder to the planet.

BioPak supplies Allpress’s 2,200 cafés across Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Singapore, and Japan, delivering products that reflect our shared vision of balancing people, planet, and profit. This partnership ensures that Allpress customers drink their coffee from cups made from rapidly renewable resources and responsibly sourced materials.

Streamlining Supply with Direct-to-Store Delivery

In an exciting development, BioPak has introduced a direct-to-store delivery model for Allpress stores in Australia. This new system enhances supply chain efficiency by bypassing distribution centres (DCs) and delivering BioPak products directly to Allpress cafés. By reducing stockholding at DCs and simplifying the supply chain, we are helping Allpress optimise their inventory management.

Café owners no longer need to handle separate orders for coffee and packaging. Instead, they can order everything through the Allpress website. Once an order is placed, the system automatically communicates with BioPak, and we take care of the rest—from order fulfilment to delivery. This integration reduces touchpoints and ensures faster delivery times, helping cafés operate smoothly.

Real-Time Order Tracking and Inventory Management

To provide even greater transparency and control, BioPak offers a fulfilment tracking portal that enables Allpress café customers to track deliveries in real-time. The portal provides detailed updates from order placement to delivery, ensuring that café owners know exactly when to expect their stock.

Additionally, the platform features an inventory management system, offering real-time insights into current stock levels and forecasting future needs based on past usage trends. This helps prevent unexpected stockouts and ensures that cafés always have the essential supplies they need.

Overall, the fulfilment tracking portal enhances operational efficiency while enhancing the customer experience by reducing the risk of stock shortages. It ensures a smooth, streamlined supply chain, keeping cafés well-stocked with minimal hassle.

A Shared Commitment to Social Accountability

Both BioPak and Allpress Espresso are dedicated to responsible sourcing and using recyclable and rapidly renewable resources. Allpress is focused on reducing its environmental impact and promoting social accountability. BioPak plays an integral role in supporting these efforts, particularly through sustainable packaging solutions and our contribution to Allpress’s emissions reduction targets. Together, we are helping to promote a circular economy by offering packaging that aligns with our commitment to balancing people, planet, and business.
