This report is also backed up by a recent article that was published by Edinburgh University into research that they had carried out, that proved for every 50 employees in a city office location, the employer would be loosing on average £85,000 per annum in downtime with staff leaving the office on coffee runs to the local high street coffee bar.
With this information now in the public domain employers at long last have started to take note of these facts, and they are now starting to look at ways to address this problem. When they look at this more closely they have started to realise that they too could potentially cash in on the benefits, of being able to bring the convenience of a simplified high street coffee offer into their workplace. By introducing compact cost effective solutions such as the mobile coffee cart, and located them in large public or open areas such as reception or large foyers they have been able to see first hand the rich rewards of both employee satisfaction and improved productivity, but also a new income street with great profits.
Recent examples of an average sized building with 150 staff or more, serving 200 coffees per day at £1.50 per cup for a 12oz latte, (grande) are able to enjoy profits in the region of £54K per annum after costs. (5 day week) This profit excludes any margin generated from the sales of any additional impulse, sweet or snack lines that accompany the sale of the coffee.

Initial and ongoing, staff training is offered to locations who have there own staff, or alternatively we are also able to offer clients a fully managed and operated service contract for business locations where they do not want to take over the day to day running of the coffee cart.
