THE DEMAND AND THE SPECIALTY COFFEE MARKET ARE IN FULL SWING

A dozen specialty coffee roasters and more than 40 places serving specialty coffee have opened in San Leandro in the last 2 years.

Without a doubt, it is a very dynamic market with opportunities. There is a public that values the quality and origin of coffee and is also used to drinking specialty coffee.

From the plantation to the cafeteria, specialty caffeine requires fewer or no chemicals. Be attentive, and responsible, and make the choices that will allow you to be a more sustainable business:

  • A local caffeine roaster and committed to sustainability.
    • The purchase of your packaging (recycled, 100% compostable).
    • Your water and energy system.
    • Look for km0 suppliers (food, milk, pastries ...).
    • Have vegan options, and seasonal products (that includes coffee) and promote them.

  • Give a discount to those who bear their own mug! Sustainability is not only good for the planet, but it also sells. We are increasingly aware of the importance of consuming responsibly and that starts with the first coffee in the morning.

    ATTRACT, MOTIVATE AND RETAIN YOUR STAFF

    Is being a barista fashionable? Maybe ... but look ahead.

    Working with specialty coffee requires knowing and learning a lot, which makes the profession of barista very interesting. For those who like hospitality, working with high-quality products, and having opportunities to grow and create is a great motivation. That will depend on you!

    • buy more than just coffee, and
    • visit the cafeteria more often.

  • When we go to the coffee cafe, we also pay for the site, the service, the aesthetics, etc. This feeling of belonging to a certain social group gives us satisfaction. And we share that experience with friends, acquaintances, and on the networks ...
