Dublin 7 social enterprise aims to turn the coffee industry “on its head”

Описание: Shane Riley from Moyee Coffee could not be more enthusiastic about his business location on Constitution Hill, Dublin 7.
“We roast coffee at origin in Ethiopia and Kenya so more of the jobs and profits stay there. We call our model Fair Chain. It’s about turning the coffee industry on its head and making sure it's a 50-50 split between coffee producing countries and consuming countries. We're a limited company. We kind of see ourselves as a for-profit social enterprise,” he said. “We fit in completely with the vibe and the atmosphere here in Hub on the Hill.”
Asked about the coffee that Changing Ireland enjoyed upstairs in the common meeting area, he said, “That's the Kenyan roast! It’s roasted by a partner roastery outside Nairobi where 15 staff are employed.”
Kudos.
Asked to name three things that make him happy coming to work in the hub, he said:
“There's a great atmosphere here. There's a great link between established for-profit companies and social enterprises. The location is fantastic as well for us, so we supply to a lot of tech companies in the city centre and we can deliver by cargo bike.”
Being in the city centre is also handy for “popping into meetings” and clients are always impressed when they visit the hub for meetings. He also gave examples of new customers that came his way thanks to networking at the hub.
