Ueshima Coffee Company, Japan's premier coffee brand, has introduced two new ready-to-drink canned beverages in the UK market: Iced Latte and Iced Matcha Latte. Founded by Tadao Ueshima in 1969, the brand holds the Guinness World Record for the longest-selling ready-to-drink canned coffee. Kirsty Pavely, Marketing Controller at UCC, expressed excitement about bringing their pioneering canned coffee to the UK. The new products are crafted with the same dedication that made Ueshima a beloved name in Japan. The Iced Latte and Iced Matcha Latte are both low in sugar and calories, priced at £2 each. Since its UK debut in 2021, Ueshima Coffee Company has successfully secured listings in major supermarkets such as Waitrose, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, and Ocado. The company aims to replicate the strong demand seen for its at-home coffee range with these new offerings.
