Ep 203 - Stripping back to the bare essentials of what makes a great hospitality brand and experience with the CEO of Industry Beans, Trevor Simmons
Established by brothers Trevor and Steven Simmons in 2010, Industry Beans is a transparent operation of sourcing, roasting and brewing specialty coffee.
In 2013 they opened Industry Beans Fitzroy which was an open-plan coffee roastery and cafe and somewhere I visited on a regular basis to get an amazing cup of coffee.
9 years later and they now have 7 venues across Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane as well as a strong wholesale and e-commerce network, so I feel fortunate to talk with the CEO of the business Trevor Simmons in this week's podcast.
In this podcast we discuss:
-How Trevor started in the hospitality and coffee industry.
-Where the idea for the first venue came about.
-Working in a family business out the gate.
-If being in different states means that it assists the brand overall.
-How IB has developed the E-Com and retail verticals of the business.
-The power of the coffee subscription model and how that was built.
-How the ‘Fitzroy Iced’ product was developed as their iced coffee brand for retail.
-The exciting moves for the brand in the next 12 months.
