Costa Coffee releases limited-edition rainbow-coloured cups

The limited-edition cups are launched ahead of Pride marches across the country.

Celebrating the LGBT community, Costa Coffee has unveiled its first-ever rainbow-coloured cups.

The limited-edition Pride cups will be fully available in selected stores across the UK in Edinburgh, Essex, London, Glasgow, Brighton, Leeds, Manchester and Cardiff. They products are fully recyclable and ordered in place of the standard red cup for each store to reduce waste.

The coffee brand is a founding partner of GLOW (Gay Lesbian Out at Whitbread), a group of over 1,000 members that champion equality and inclusion in the workplace.

“Our all new rainbow cups are a fun way to celebrate Pride and reflect Costa Coffee’s values of equality, and diversity. We are passionate about championing team members rights to work in an inclusive, supportive environment. We’re so proud of the achievements of the GLOW team and look forward to seeing them marching at the many of the Pride Parades across the UK,” Costa Coffee managing director for UK & Ireland Jason Cotta.
