About Us

Cars, Coffee & Collectables – A Family Business Built on Passion & Community

Cars, Coffee & Collectables is a family-run business based in Murchison, New Zealand, founded by Caitlin and Cruize in June 2025.

Our mission is simple: create a space where passion, creativity, family, and community come together — and build a business our children can proudly take into the future.

Our Values

We built our business on the values we want to pass to our children:

  • Quality & Craftsmanship
  • Honesty & Transparency
  • Reliability & Fairness
  • Family-Based Service
  • Community First

We offer fair pricing, payment plans, discounts for returning customers, and real human support — no chatbots, no runaround.

Our Story

We started with just a block of beeswax, a few candle molds, and 25 vintage Pokémon cards from a thrift shop.

Sale by sale, late night after late night, we reinvested everything into growing our stock and expanding our vision.

Today, we’re proud to offer a wide range of products and are working toward opening a brick-and-mortar store in Nelson, Christchurch, or Waikato.

Our Dream

Our long-term goal is to combine all our passions into one unique family-friendly space:

An automotive workshop + a cosy coffee shop + a collectables & creative studio.

A place where you can get your WOF, enjoy a coffee, shop for cards, candles or plants, relax with the kids, or explore your next hobby.

A safe, fun environment with something for everyone.
