    Re: cuppacoffee - closing

    Best of luck with the change in direction. I am not far off a change in occupation (10 months). It is fun planning the future but also unsettling not knowing if you will enjoy the change. :-/

      Very sorry to hear your news, Den. Hope everything is ok. A loss to the industry.

        Re: cuppacoffee - closing

        Since closing the business Ive had a number of people contact me with expressions of concern, which prompted this message.

        Firstly...Im fine - I havent fallen ill or come to any harm, but thanks to everyone Ive spoken with recently.

        Before deciding to close the shop I was approached by a coffee franchise to provide some consultancy work, which I did. As a result, Ive been asked to work with them on a full time basis. The role has been created for me, and for now, Im involved with identifying suitable locations for our new corporate headquarters as well as sourcing coffee roasting equipment.

        The ability to use state of the art equipment and roast coffee for a Company that is focused on continuous improvement is very exciting. It will be a few months before everything is up and running, though when it is, Ill provide another update.

        Its my dream job!

        I wish you all well and hope you will remain in touch. I do intend to continue contributing as best I can on the forum.

        Kind regards
        Dennis

          You could have mentioned at the start that you were quitting cuppacoffee for the right reasons. Six weeks is a long time before coming clean.

            Thats a bit rough Steve. I didnt know six weeks ago.  It was only formalised this afternoon.

              Congrats Den,

              Its the right thing to never blurt until ink is on paper

              I am greatly looking forward to hearing the news of this next phase.

              Good luck and please keep us informed.

              Congrats on the beginning of the next phase.

              Chris

                My apologies. I misunderstood your post and inferred you closed cuppacoffee because you were offered the new job. It wasnt clear that the consultancy offer was made recently.

                Congratulations. Sounds big and exciting.

                  So shall we expect the quality of GJs beans to improve shortly then?
