Jasper Enterprises

Chris has been working on setting up a small coffee business. He buys locally grown coffee wholesale and takes orders from individuals through a website. The orders are shipped out to the mainland through UPS or the Post Office. It is a pretty simple concept but he has been working on the business for a while. It has taken him a lot of effort to make the logos and labels and buy the boxes, bags, stickers, labels and get a website created. I guess the hard work of being a business owner is all part of that American dream they talk about. His favorite part of setting up the American coffee business was making a machine to help put the labels onto the coffee bags. The machine works really well even though it was made mostly of parts from a broken computer printer. Chris projects the coffee business to be a part-time thing he will do on the side.

It's been a long time since I've had some fresh Kona coffee - you shipped it out to the east coast faster than I was expecting. The dark roast is great! Wonderful bouquet that sits just right on my palette. Looking forward to my next order.

I'm so glad you're enjoying the coffee. We're getting spoiled by having that 100% Kona coffee around...mmmmmm.
