Starting a coffee and snack business doesn’t always require a large storefront or high rent. For one customer in East Timor, the dream of running a cozy café became reality with a custom small shipping container cafe designed and built by ETODEVICE.
This project shows how we help small business owners turn limited space and budget into a fully functional, eye-catching café that fits perfectly into their backyard.
A Café in the Backyard – The Customer Story
Our customer from East Timor is an independent entrepreneur, passionate about serving fresh coffee and snacks. With a limited budget and a backyard space that couldn’t accommodate a standard 20ft container, they needed something smaller, yet still practical and visually appealing.
That’s where ETODEVICE stepped in, offering a shipping container cafe for sale in a compact size, customized for both their space and business needs. |

Custom Model CB450 – Designed for Small Spaces
Instead of a standard 20ft unit, we produced a CB450 container cafe measuring 4500mm x 2100mm x 2150mm (internal height 2000mm). This size makes it easy to fit into tight locations without sacrificing functionality.
Key Features of the CB450 Container Cafe:
- Exterior Color: RAL1014 Ivory for a warm and inviting appearance
- Power System: 220V/50Hz with European standard sockets
- Service Window: White glass sliding window for customer service
- Signage: Illuminated top signage with the café’s brand “LENOFIMATA CAFE”
- Door: Secure RV-style door lock for safety
Fully Equipped for Coffee and Snack Service
The interior layout was planned to make every centimeter count, ensuring efficient workflow and attractive display. Equipment included:
- ·2m stainless steel range hood for ventilation
- ·2.1m horizontal refrigerator and upright beverage cooler
- ·Four-burner gas stove and vertical gas fryer
- ·Coffee machine and ice cream machine for drink and dessert service
