Season 1
Episode 11
Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
Lucas and Luna explore the story of a specialty coffee roastery that grew from a single café to supplying over 200 wholesale accounts across the US without taking any venture capital. They break down the specific unit economics, the bootstrapped supply chain strategy, and how a focus on cash flow over growth at all costs built a durable mid-market business. The episode looks at the trade-offs of staying independent and how the founder turned a commodity into a subscription-like revenue model.
