Proposal for Funding to Launch the Barbershop Black Coffee Company

​

Executive Summary

We are seeking to raise $12,000 to officially launch The Barbershop Black Coffee Company, a new venture that will roast premium coffee beans in our Breadsmith location. This exciting new brand will not only serve customers at our Breadsmith café but will also supply bulk coffee to all of our franchise locations. By integrating coffee roasting into our existing operations, we will provide high-quality, freshly roasted coffee to consumers and franchisees alike, enhancing the value of our brand offerings.

​

The Opportunity

The specialty coffee industry continues to thrive as consumers increasingly favor locally roasted, artisanal coffee over mass-produced alternatives. With the Barbershop Black Coffee Company, we are positioned to capitalize on this growing demand by offering unique coffee blends that resonate with our brand’s identity. Roasting in-house at our Breadsmith location ensures full control over quality and freshness while allowing us to supply bulk coffee to our franchise locations, creating a vertically integrated coffee supply chain across all of our businesses.

​

Why The Barbershop Black Coffee Company?

  • In-House Roasting: Roasting our own coffee beans allows us to maintain the highest standards of freshness and flavor, ensuring that each cup reflects the quality that our customers expect.

  • Franchise Support: By supplying bulk coffee to our franchisees, we not only provide them with a superior product but also create a consistent coffee offering across all locations, enhancing brand recognition.

  • Local and Sustainable: Our focus on sustainability and locally sourced beans aligns with the growing demand for ethically produced coffee.

  • Unique Brand Identity: The Barbershop Black Coffee Company is inspired by our barbershop heritage, creating a distinctive identity that appeals to both coffee enthusiasts and barbershop culture.

​​

Business Model

  • In-House Sales: Coffee will be sold in our Breadsmith café, offering freshly brewed coffee and packaged beans for retail customers.

  • Franchise Distribution: Bulk roasted coffee will be distributed to all franchise locations, where it will be sold and served to patrons.

  • Online Sales: Customers will be able to purchase our coffee blends directly through an online store, allowing us to reach a wider audience.

The $12,000 raised will be allocated as follows:

  • Coffee Roaster Purchase: $7,500 for a commercial-grade coffee roaster, allowing us to roast up to 5 kg of beans at a time.

  • Packaging and Branding: $2,000 for branded packaging materials and product labels to create a professional and cohesive look for our coffee products.

  • Equipment & Supplies: $1,500 for essential equipment such as grinders, scales, and storage containers.

  • Marketing & Launch: $1,000 for marketing and promotional campaigns to introduce The Barbershop Black Coffee Company to customers and franchisees.
