“Going to visit them properly made me take the step. First off, the coffee alone is worth the trip. But beyond that, seeing everything up close is a bit of a lightbulb moment.
You get to really appreciate the level of care, craftsmanship, and attention that goes into it; it’s not just a converted vehicle, it’s your future business being physically built. There’s a lot of pride in what they do, and it shows.
And it all feels very personal. It’s a small team, so you’re not passed around or treated like a number. You get to know the people in the business, and they take the time to get to know you and what you’re trying to achieve. They’re super friendly, approachable, and refreshingly honest; they’ll tell you what they think works and what doesn’t alongside where & what to focus on, which is exactly what you need when you’re starting something new.
At no point did it feel like they were just trying to sell me something. What it does feel like, is one business trying to support and help another, which makes a huge difference when you’re taking a leap and making a significant investment.
So, going from ‘maybe one day’ to making my coffee business a reality, started with one conversation with the guys at The Big Coffee. And I’m very glad I had it.” – Colette
