Award winning social enterprise Porter’s Coffee Shop has continued its expansion – by throwing open the doors of its fifth outlet at Parc Eirias in Colwyn Bay. 

The flourishing business launched the new venture to join branches in Rhyl, at Ely and Llandaff North in Cardiff, and its flagship café on Colwyn Bay’s Station Road.  

The 60-seat coffee shop, at Colwyn Leisure Centre, offers the same mix of  food and drink familiar to established Porter’s customers – plus a range of healthy eating options.  

The expansion has allowed the coffee shop chain, run by CAIS Social Enterprises, to appoint five new members of staff.  Porter’s – which also offers outside and party catering, including a trailer for events – now employs 12 people throughout Wales, plus a number of casual workers.

CAIS Social Enterprises catering manager Mark Welsh said: “We’re thrilled to open our doors in yet another new location as Porter’s continues to expand.

“Our new branch at Colwyn Leisure Centre will be open seven days a week, and will provide our fantastic offer for people who use the facilities or those who simply want to wander in beautiful Parc Eirias.

“Porter’s is pleased to be part of the community in Colwyn Bay, and we look forward to catering for both new and familiar faces at Parc Eirias.”
