CAFES
We are passionate about converting shipping containers into cafes or restaurants.
Besides great coffee, tasteful food and outstanding service, a matching and unique environment also plays a key role in the success of a restaurant or coffee shop.
Modulate Group has built shipping container cafes and restaurants for some of the most well-known brands around Australia. From small 10ft shipping container cafes to large multiple and complex 20ft and 40ft restaurants, we are truly the expert when it comes to building modular cafes and restaurants for the hospitality industry.
Through practical design and exceptional craftsmanship, a Modulate Cafe can help you get new customers and make more profits.

Upgrade to an Extra Wide Modulate Container
ONLY AT MODULATE GROUP
Shipping containers come in standard sizes of approximately 2.4 metres wide and lengths of 6 metres or 12 metres.
Considering the need to insulate the metal box to be liveable through our Aussie summers and winters, this can reduce the useful area available.
A single container is too narrow to get a really efficient layout and a double, joined in the middle container is more expensive and not as portable compared to a standard single container.
Introducing Modulate's patented widened Shipping Containers. Our widened Container range (6x3 and 6x3.5) keeps the benefits of a standard shipping container while making it more human scaled and consequently more comfortable.
