US coffee roaster Crimson Cup Coffee & Tea has opened its fourth international coffee shop in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

The new Rangs Fortune Square venue joins Crimson Cup Coffee Houses in the Banani and Dhanmondi neighborhoods.

“Dhanmondi is a huge residential area with a multicultural population,” said MD Mohaimin Mostafa, “and our existing shop in Dhanmondi 27 was not sufficient to keep up with demand. Our second outlet in Dhanmondi makes it much easier for customers to reach us.”

The brand features a brew bar where baristas hand-pour craft coffees discovered during Crimson Cup’s sourcing trips all over the world.

After opening four coffee houses since 2015, the Crimson Cup Bangladesh team is continuing its plans for expansion. Managers are looking for locations in Sylhet and Chittagong as well as the resort city of Cox Bazar. They are also exploring development opportunities in India, Nepal and Thailand.
