One often finds that successful businesses have had their roots forged when close friends have a collective vision to formulate an idea into reality.
One such business is the hugely successful Commonfolk Coffee Company. This company now boasts 90 plus staff and is building a reputation to deliver quality coffee, rain, hail, or shine.
A love and passion for amazing coffee led to a group of mates which included Sam Keck, Troy McDonagh, and Andrew Dell establishing Commonfolk. These guys are the real deal, and it is comforting to see a genuine sincerity is evident when they all interact with their clients.
When you combine a major roastery and four cafés providing local communities with venues to relax, enjoy and experience a multitude of offerings, Commonfolk is certainly turning heads throughout Australia.
Their mantra is to have a hands-on involvement in the supply chain from the coffee farmers themselves through to the perfect cup. This company is establishing great respect within the industry as they constantly endeavour to offer and find solutions to coffee growers concerns.
A strong workplace culture has also resulted in employees enjoying their day at work with all members of the team being encouraged to showcase their talents. Café workers including baristas and chefs, office, and management staff, etc and all those who slog it out in the roastery boast a special comradery that is simply refreshing.
Commonfolk has a top-notch barista academy for those wishing to learn or improve their skills which includes introductory courses for members of the public. Advice for those dreaming of opening their own café is also available.
Commonfolk Coffee Company can be found on Progress St, Mornington Victoria 3931 Ph (03) 5902 2786
