Meet GPNT: Exceptional Coffee & Single Origins
Every month, Perth Coffee Exchange shines a spotlight on a standout coffee brand, and kicking off 2026, GPNT (Good People Nice Things) is our Roaster of the Month at Perth Coffee Exchange, celebrated for their outstanding coffee and community focus.. Founded by Alex in Boorloo (Perth), GPNT isn’t just about roasting beans—it’s about building community, celebrating relationships, and crafting coffee with character. For Alex, 2025 was a year to remember: launching standout blends, helping friends along the way, and managing every part of the business himself. With his wife Katherine joining the journey, GPNT has truly become a family affair.

Why GPNT?
Alex says it best: “It does what it says on the box.” And the box carries more than just coffee—it carries purpose. GPNT’s mission is simple: focus on good people, create nice things, and let exceptional coffee follow naturally.
