AboutExhibitor Search

Coffee continues to amaze us. From its journey from plant to portafilter, we are obsessed about how amazing coffee is crafted. Whether brewed meticulously over filters, or carefully prepared as an espresso, our goal is to show you coffee’s delicious possibilities.

Initially named Pandava Coffee, during our venture in the downstream coffee industry, Aston Utan, Daryanto Witarsa, Yoshua Tanu, and then later Philip Chen, learned to determine the direction of their business. The four founders decided to choose the specialty coffee industry over commercial. Departing from our love for specialty coffee, in 2014, the first Common Grounds Coffee Roaster opened at Citywalk Sudirman in Jakarta, Indonesia.

The name ‘Common Grounds’ aims to shared spaces that can connect people of different ages, religions, races, occupations, and interests, to come, find and build relationships with one another through a shared love of coffee.
