Dear Community,
I’m always happy to share that our enterprise is growing, but it’s important for me to be transparent by letting you know our growth has come with many sacrifices. Despite the challenges, we continue to press forward. I’ll dedicate a future post to sharing more on our highs and lows…
For now, I’d like to share that our most recent achievement has been growing our specialty coffee brand (BVP Coffee Co.) from a simple Shopify store to moving into a commercial kitchen space offering our specialty drinks for pickup & delivery orders. As I write this, I have to step away occasionally to fulfill orders from UberEats. It’s very exciting!
Our company has passed all inspections, and is now fully licensed in Philadelphia — this means we’re ready to cater corporate meetings and private events. Shout out to University City Science Center, Truist Bank, and Mom Your Business for being earlier supporters!
This achievement has only been possible due to our community providing us with opportunities to grow.
Today, I’d like to ask for your help, as our startup is in need of working capital to invest in quality equipment, part-time staff, and our premium ingredients. This is a small loan to help us continue to experiment and figure things out, and we hope to present a more substantial investment opportunity in the future. We need just 15 supporters to help us make our current fundraising campaign public on Kiva.org.
Thanks to you, we can continue to roll up our sleeves and put in the hard work necessary to serve our community.
Thank you!
Garry
