The Bushveld Brew Container Café

A fully equipped, robust and modular café kitchen built from a shipping container — designed for South African conditions.

African Containers Hub has built practical and purpose-designed container solutions for businesses that need reliable facilities without the cost and permanence of a traditional brick-and-mortar structure. The Bushveld Brew Container Café is designed as a complete commercial kitchen and café solution, suitable for remote sites, tourism destinations, farms, lodges, roadside businesses, events and hospitality operations.

This particular concept was designed to provide a fully functional kitchen facility from a modified shipping container, allowing operators to prepare and serve food while maintaining a professional, secure and hygienic working environment.

Robust and Modular

The client wanted their café/kitchen built from a shipping container because they needed something that could be relocated when required, while also being able to be locked up securely and stored if the business or site closes temporarily.

A container café can also provide a more cost-effective alternative to constructing a permanent traditional building, while giving the owner the flexibility to expand, relocate or customise the facility as the business grows.
