Inspiration

Cafe Domus means "Cafe Home". It's inspired by home cafe enthusiasts all over the world who have an interest in supporting emerging coffee and tea suppliers like BLM Brew Co, Banyan Coffee Co, Nguyen Cofee Supply, MEM Tea Imports, etc. Due to the shifting livelihoods for all during the pandemic, many folks in the service industry are feeling the impact of pivoting covid policy regulations, family wellbeing, and work opportunities (in-person & remote). Coffee and tea suppliers are one of the many groups impacted by the pandemic due to gaps in supply and demand in B2B (Business to Business) sales.

What it does

Cafe Domus is a one-stop to explore emerging and trending coffee and tea suppliers from around the United States. This Business to Consumer platform aims to increase the discovery of diverse family-owned businesses that lack resources to promote out of state.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Following through with this idea.

What was learned
