You want to benefit from the experience of coffee professionals, and you’re right! In order to promote the development of specialty coffee in France, we encourage project leaders to go beyond their initial training, regarding all things coffee-related as well as the other quality products and services to be found in a specialty coffee shop. Let’s discuss your needs: sourcing, creating your menu, choosing your equipment, and arranging your workspace. We can also cover stock management, sales techniques, and even recruitment.
