A Special Day at Clevedon Market: CaffTail Meets New Zealand’s Prime Minister

Sunday, 18 October 2026 brought a memorable moment for CaffTail Coffee at Clevedon Village Farmers Market.

During his visit to the market, New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon stopped for a friendly conversation with a member of our sales team. For a small local coffee brand, it was a lovely reminder of what makes community markets so special: people from every walk of life meeting face to face, sharing stories and discovering the businesses behind the products.

More Than an Online Coffee Brand

CaffTail may serve customers through our online store, but our story also lives offline. At local markets, customers can meet our team, talk about the coffee they enjoy and see the people behind every bag.

That personal connection matters to us. Coffee is not simply something we sell—it is a daily ritual that brings people together. Clevedon Market gives us the chance to listen to customers, answer questions and introduce more New Zealanders to CaffTail in person.

A Genuine Local Business

Building a trusted brand takes more than a good-looking website. It comes from showing up, having real conversations and becoming part of the community.

The Prime Minister’s visit was an unexpected highlight, but the most important part of every market day remains the same: meeting local coffee drinkers and helping them find something they will genuinely enjoy.

Whether you prefer a bold espresso, a smooth everyday blend, convenient drip coffee or a thoughtful gift for a coffee-loving friend, our team is always happy to help.

Coffee, Community and a Cause

CaffTail was created around two things we care deeply about: good coffee and cats. We donate 10% of our profit to support cat rescue in New Zealand, so every purchase helps us contribute to a cause close to our hearts.

That purpose is part of the brand wherever you find us—online or at a local market.

Come and Meet CaffTail

If you see the CaffTail stall at Clevedon Village Farmers Market, come over and say hello. You can meet the team, explore our coffee range and find the right roast for your taste or brewing method.

If you cannot visit us in person, you can still shop the CaffTail range online and have your coffee delivered anywhere in New Zealand.

Politics is politics. But good coffee brings people together.
