It is easy to see why they have achieved growth year on year with sales now in excess of $830,000.
This is a unique franchise system. You the owner, control the coffee process from start to finish. This is achieved through the on-site processes of roasting green beans – taking the raw product and transforming it into something magical.
It is currently running fully managed and would be perfectly suited to a passionate individual or partnership who understands what this café is all about.
