From Thailand's highways to Bashundhara, Dhaka.
Café Amazon started at a PTT petrol station in Bangkok in 2002. Today it is one of Asia's largest coffee chains — and Bangladesh's newest specialty café, now open in Bashundhara R/A.
We exist to make the pausefeel important — a room, a chair, a cup, a few minutes that don't belong to anyone else.
Café Amazon is owned by PTT Oil and Retail Business (PTT OR), Thailand's largest state enterprise. With over 4,100 stores worldwide, it is one of Asia's most recognised coffee chains. In Bangladesh, the brand is operated under a master franchise agreement with Bashundhara Group — one of the country's foremost conglomerates — with a long‑term plan to open more than 100 locations.
Four things we stand behind.
Sourced from the rainforest.
Café Amazon beans come from select Thai and Southeast Asian highland farms — traceable, ethical, and roasted fresh for every market.
Crafted by trained baristas.
Every Café Amazon barista completes a structured training programme before serving a single guest drink — consistency is a promise, not an accident.
A room designed to slow you.
Natural materials, generous daylight, and a layout that invites you to stay longer than you planned. We build cafés, not queues.
Committed to Bangladesh.
Through our franchise partnership with Bashundhara Group, we are building a sustainable, long‑term presence — not a pop‑up, not a trial.
Fair to everyone in the cup.
Café Amazon's Fair Trade promise rests on four pillars — a commitment that runs from the farmer's hands to the cup in yours.
Fair to Farmer
Direct partnerships with highland growers — fair prices, long contracts, and on‑farm support that makes coffee a livelihood, not a gamble.
Fair to Nature
Shade‑grown beans and regenerative practices that protect the soil, the watershed, and the canopy that the Amazon name was built on.
Fair to Planet
Compostable cups, low‑waste roasting, and a packaging programme designed to leave less behind than it brings.
Fair to Everyone
A café that welcomes every guest, every budget, every walk of life — coffee culture that belongs to the neighbourhood it sits in.
Twenty‑two years, four continents, one cup at a time.
Born in Thailand
PTT Public Company Limited opens the first Café Amazon at a petrol station in Bangkok. A new kind of coffee culture takes root.
Southeast Asia expansion
Café Amazon crosses borders — Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam welcome the brand. 1,000 stores milestone reached.
Global footprint
Oman, Saudi Arabia, Philippines, China, Japan, and Malaysia join the network. Café Amazon becomes one of Asia's largest coffee chains.
Bangladesh agreement
PTT OR signs a master franchise agreement with Bashundhara Group — one of Bangladesh's largest conglomerates — to bring Café Amazon to Dhaka.
First cup in Dhaka
Café Amazon opens its inaugural Bangladesh outlet. The target: 100+ locations across the country within a few years.
Growing fast
Our first Bangladesh outlet is open in Bashundhara R/A, Dhaka. Compostable packaging, trained baristas, and a long‑term plan for 100+ stores.
Five places your cup passes through.
The Café Amazon supply chain runs end‑to‑end inside PTT OR — from processing to roastery to the distribution hub that feeds every store.
Coffee Processing
Cherries are pulped, washed, and sun‑dried within hours of harvest — the first step that protects every flavour note to come.
Roastery
Small‑batch roasting at PTT OR's in‑house roastery, profiled bean‑by‑bean for the Café Amazon house cup.
Dry Mix Factory
Signature powdered blends and frappé bases are weighed and packed under food‑grade controls for global consistency.
Bakery
Croissants, cakes, and savoury bakes baked daily for the network — the pastry case is part of the ritual, not an afterthought.
Distribution
A central distribution hub keeps over 4,100 stores stocked with the same beans, the same recipes, the same standard.
Coffee is not just a drink in Bangladesh — it is an invitation to slow down, to gather, to belong. We are here to make that invitation available to everyone.
