Jablum

What Jablum does

JABLUM Czech s.r.o. (Jablum) is a privately-held, family-owned Czech specialty coffee company founded in 2007 by Alena Nývltová and Petr Nývlt, headquartered in Bakov nad Jizerou and operating across the Czech Republic with showrooms/coffee centers in Prague, Mladá Boleslav, and Liberec. The company runs four roasteries equipped with LORING (7kg, 15kg) and NOVOROASTER (1.2kg, 5kg) machines, supplemented by an in-house analytical laboratory for coffee quality control. Its product portfolio spans three proprietary coffee brands — Banua (100% Arabica from Mexico and Haiti), Coffee Club (single-origin specialty), and Ventino (Arabica/Canephora blend) — alongside a limited-edition Vintage Car line.

Jablum operates as an authorized reseller and service center for Swiss Jura and German Nivona automatic coffee machines (domestic ENA/E/J/S series and professional WE/X series), providing sales, installation, warranty service, and a maintenance subscription-style service stream across Czech and Slovak markets. Its go-to-market is multi-channel: physical retail showrooms, multiple dedicated e-commerce storefronts (jablum.cz, obchod.jablum.cz, banua.cz, mujkavovar.cz, jura.jablum.cz), an authorized dealer network, and event-driven revenue from a mobile Citroën HY coffee bar and professional coffee catering.

The business serves two primary customer segments — B2C consumers purchasing home coffee and machines, and B2B corporate clients acquiring private-label coffee (minimum 80 units), office coffee solutions, and event catering. Revenue is generated through one-time sales of roasted coffee and machines, recurring service contracts on installed Jura/Nivona machines, event-based catering and mobile bar rentals (15,000 CZK/day), and barista courses. The company holds SCA membership (2021) and Fair Trade certification for specific origins, and sources green coffee from more than 30 plantations worldwide.

Direct peers

• Coffee Fellows: German specialty coffee chain operating cafés combined with wholesale roasted coffee and bean supply to hotels and offices. Comparable to Jablum's mix of physical coffee centers serving both walk-in consumers and B2B office coffee clients.
• Puro Coffee: Czech specialty single-origin coffee roaster selling premium beans to consumers and B2B customers. Directly comparable as a domestic Czech competitor in the specialty coffee roasting segment with overlapping customer segments and bean sourcing model.
• Julius Meinl: Vienna-based premium coffee roaster with multi-generation heritage, retail coffee houses, and broad Central European wholesale. Closely comparable to Jablum as a family-rooted specialty roaster with a similar mix of own-brand coffee, café/showroom experience, and B2B foodservice presence across Austria/Czechia/CEE.
• Dallmayr: Munich-based premium coffee roaster with deep B2B foodservice and retail presence in German-speaking Europe. Comparable to Jablum in vertical integration (roastery + retail cafés + own-brand coffee) and in serving office and HoReCa customers across DACH and adjacent CEE markets.

Emerging players

• Blue Bottle Coffee: Specialty coffee roaster with flagship cafés, e-commerce, and selective wholesale programs emphasizing single-origin freshness. Comparable to Jablum in specialty positioning and freshness-led roasting, though operating at materially larger scale and brand recognition.
• La Colombe: US-based specialty coffee roaster combining own retail cafés, wholesale coffee service, and ready-to-drink bottled products. Comparable to Jablum in the integrated roastery-café-B2B-wholesale model and emphasis on specialty single-origin coffee.

Broad incumbents

• Tchibo: German retailer/roaster offering private-label coffee, capsule systems, and B2B office coffee solutions. Comparable to Jablum in the private-label and office coffee B2B segments, though Tchibo competes at mass-market scale and via grocery channels.
• Lavazza: Italian global coffee major with a wide portfolio spanning roasted coffee, beans, capsules, and HoReCa solutions. Comparable to Jablum in coffee roasting and B2B office/HoReCa supply but operates at far greater scale and competes as a broad incumbent rather than a specialty niche.
• Segafredo Zanetti: Italian coffee group with global roasting, distribution, and chain of branded espresso bars. Comparable in its dual roasting-plus-café model and B2B office/HoReCa presence, but operating at much greater international scale than Jablum.
• Douwe Egberts / JDE Peets: Global coffee and tea major offering roasted coffee, beans, capsules, and out-of-home solutions across Europe. Comparable as a competing roaster and B2B office coffee supplier in the Czech market, though JDE operates a far broader portfolio at mass-market positioning.
