The Italian coffee chain has agreements in place to open second sites in each of Jakarta and Manila, as well as enter a third market in the region with a store in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Founded as a small coffee roastery in 1870, Café Barbera has been led by five generations of the Barbera family and evolved from a local roaster in southern Italy to an international brand with a distribution reach across more than 60 countries.
