East West Coffee is about the passion, the romance and the culture of the coffee experience. We believe there are few things that can bring so many different people to a table as coffee can. We love people, and we love great coffee.
What do we do?
Our primary focus is bringing the coffee experience and the culture of coffee to new places and elevating the coffee culture and experience in places where it already exists. We have done it all from barista to coffee house management to roasting, coffee education and now primarily, consulting. We work to combine over 16 years of coffee experience with a love for people and a passion for the bean.
What are we up to?
We recently completed a 3 year project in Eurasia where we helped to develop the coffee house experience where the coffee culture simply did not exist.
We began working in Eastern Europe in June 2012. By November 2013, after seventeen months of development we had two cafes operational in partnership with locals. In June 2014, after the successful launch of a third coffeehouse, Paragraph Coffee, we concluded our second year on this project by revisiting education for baristas and customers, developing a growth strategy for the existing businesses and the planning of 2 additional Paragraph Coffee locations.
All of these cafes exist to build individual relationships into the community in which they serve, a city of 300,000 people.
What’s next?
We’re open to that, as long as it includes great coffee and meeting new people. And good food. Good food always motivates.
