Captain&Co Reveals Restored Vintage Piaggio Ape Coffee & Drinks Cart, Elevating Australias Special

DARLING POINT, Australia - EntSun -- Sydney, Australia | 28 November 2025

Captain&Co, one of Australia's fastest growing specialty coffee and event service companies, has officially launched its newest attraction: a fully restored vintage Piaggio Ape that has been transformed into a premium coffee cart and drinks cart for high end events, corporate activations and luxury celebrations.

This announcement marks a significant moment for founder Aaron Philips, who has continued to expand Captain&Co's presence across Sydney and Melbourne with beautifully presented specialty coffee carts, drinks carts and immersive brand activations.

The new Piaggio Ape known internally as Enzo has undergone a complete restoration to bring a classic Italian icon into the modern event world. Now equipped with a commercial espresso setup, chilled beverage service, built in storage and Captain&Co's signature design aesthetic, it serves as both a functioning mobile bar and a visually striking centrepiece for events.
