Nespresso Launches Functional Coffee Range in SA
What if your morning coffee was more than just a cup of Joe? What if your morning cuppa could contribute to your health and wellness journey too? With wellness top of mind for a growing number of coffee drinkers, Nespresso is personalising your morning coffee with a new focus on energy, intention, and balance.
The coffee brand has launched its new Nespresso Functional Coffee Range, a collection of five thoughtfully crafted blends with ingredients designed to support modern lifestyles with the aid of Ginseng, Vitamin B, and extra caffeine.
Crafted for coffee lovers looking for more from their brew without changing how they enjoy it, the new range from Nespresso features three distinct routes, each with coffees that celebrate their own purposeful ingredients. The range includes:
Stormio Go & Melozio Go: With extra caffeine and a bold, roasted profile, this blend supports those get-up-and-go mornings or long stretches of focus.
Vivida B12 & Active B6: A smooth and uplifting option providing a source of B vitamins, designed to complement busy days and keep you feeling at pace.
Ginseng Delight: Blended with ginseng and soft, comforting notes, this is the perfect cup to ease into a slower moment or wind down gently.
The rapid growth of South Africa’s health and wellness market
So why the shift to functional coffee? According to statistics from a recent study, South Africa’s health and wellness market reached US$26.64bn (R466bn), with expectations for it to hit US$42bn (R738.9bn) by 2033. This is part of a global shift toward more intentional, health-focused living.
Considering the wellness trend growing among consumers the world over, Gabriel Nobre, Chief Executive Officer at Nespresso South Africa says society is becoming more conscious of how small, daily habits shape our overall wellbeing. “We know coffee is a staple in millions of homes, but it’s more than a source of caffeine. It’s also a moment of calm, a motivator, and for many, a ritual that sets the tone for the rest of the day,” says Nobre.
Nespresso says, like all its products, the Functional Coffee Range is rooted in quality. The ingredients are responsibly sourced, precision-roasted, and designed for exceptional taste. Nobre says this range is distinct as it effortlessly aligns with the everyday rhythms of people who care about their wellbeing but aren’t looking to overhaul their routine.
“Whether you’re easing into a yoga flow, prepping for a packed calendar, or taking a quiet moment before the day begins, it’s time to put a little extra thought behind every sip,” Nobre concludes.
The Nespresso Functional Coffee Range is now available in Nespresso boutiques and online. Each capsule is compatible with Nespresso Vertuo machines.
