Posted Thu Apr 8, 2004, 12:36am Subject: Opening a roasting business. how much?
I am looking into opening a coffee roasting business. just would like to know from some pros out there how much it would cost to open a small plant. Im not looking to anything relly big to start. maybe a 7.5 - 15kg roaster to start second hand is fine. what other materials would be needed and set up costs. of course I would hire a roaster to take care of setup for my plant. My speciality is in sales in marketing in hospitality. and I was thinking about opening a small roasting operation with the potential to for growth. with the right brandname, marketing, promotion and sales. and OF GREAT COFFEE! I think I can have a small share of the local market.. not looking to take over the world. just enough to have a respectable profitible coffee brand on the market in my area. how would it cost? and some info please.. thanks.. if you would rather discusss in private email me. cafetonic@yahoo.com
