About us

Maipac is a family-owned and operated business at the heart of Adelaide's coffee industry. Based in Pooraka, we have spent over 15 years building a reputation for high-quality, trusted products as a partner of Coffee Complex, one of Adelaide's coffee industry leaders.

We specialise in producing Nespresso-compatible capsules, working closely with coffee roasters from bean to capsule, through to personalised branding and packaging ready for distribution. Our capsule manufacturing business is growing quickly, and we are looking for an energetic, self-motivated person to join our fun and professional team.
