SO HOW LOCAL ARE YOU REALLY?
WE SUPPLY PREMIUM BATCH-ROASTED COFFEE TO CAFES IN THE BAY
When your single biggest cost is coffee, you want to be sure your wholesale coffee supply is aligned with what your regulars love you for (among other things) — being local — being part of the community. When new customers come knocking you want to impress them with local fare and showcase the region to its best advantage.
We all win this way.
WHOLESALE COFFEE SUPPLY FOR YOUR CAFE OR BUSINESS
As a coffee roaster supplying the Bay of Plenty, we’re always just up the road, truly local.
We hang our hat on being approachable, community focused and fully equipped to meet your wholesale coffee supply needs. It doesn’t matter to us whether your establishment is a cutting-edge coffee-focused space or a mom-and-pop shop with no frills and a whole lot of heart, everyone’s welcome at Little Drum Coffee. We can sort you out with what you need and support you along the way.
We believe we all have something in common - a wish to serve our customers a great cup, every time.
WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU SOURCE THROUGH US:
Hand delivery
We deliver in person every week, that means you’re receiving stock directly from the roaster and we can catch up regularly on how you’re going with stock levels, staff training, and your customers tastes. This means nothing is lost in translation and we can respond quickly to your changing needs.
local supply
We have a small catchment — servicing the Bay of Plenty exclusively. That allows us to be available to our customers at short notice, and it makes it easy for you too, to stop by the roastery and see where your supply is coming from. With a lot of hospitality businesses singing the ‘support local’ chorus (and rightly so!), it’s nice to know you can source one of your key offerings — coffee — from a truly local supplier.
direct access to the roaster
When you deal with us, you’re dealing directly with the roasters. This ensures strong support with no middle men, just direct communication, so nothing is lost in translation.
ONGOING TRAINING AT NO EXTRA COST
It’s better for you, and it’s better for us if our coffee is presented expertly to your customers. So we don’t charge extra for training. Whether your staff are just starting out as barista’s or if they’re seasoned pros we can work with them to refine their technique and deepen their knowledge. As previous competition champs and now representing as judges at national barista comps it’s safe to say we are qualified to train your staff to the highest standard.
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONES TASTE
We can offer a range of beans at your fingertips to cater to your customers’ particular palate. From specialty single origins to artfully created blends we can provide a flavour profile and roast to suit everyone, and every establishment.
