Description
It's Founder Friday! Today I am excited to present this live interview with the Co-Founder of Mighty Oak Roasters in Astoria, NY, Peter Moses! You may recognize Peter because he was one of a few people I interviewed on the floor of the 2019 Coffee Fest NYC trade show. At that time they were very much in the planning and build- phase but now Mighty Oak has taken root in Astoria and has gown to quickly become THE spot in the neighbor hood for amazing wood-roasted coffee and an ambiance that is second to none. Mighty Oak has deigned their 1,000 sq.ft. space to not only house a cafe but also all of their roasting and production which is one of the world most sustainable operations. In this interview we go deep into their story, their operations, values, and plans. It was a thrill to see something like this come to fruition and I have no doubt you will get great value from this interview with Peter. Amongst other things we talk about: Wood-fire roasting and its advantages Building a cafe space and roastery at the same time Space challenges Researching design and workflow Leading and hiring people Letting the business tell you how to grow Receiving feedback from staff Expansion insights Personal growth as an owner Links: www.mightyoakroasters.com 142: Entrepreneur Interviews from Coffee Fest NYC (Featuring Peter Moses) The BEST in commercial coffee equipment www.prima-coffee.com/keys Want the best plant based beverage for your coffee drinks? www.pacificfoods.com/food-service
