The 'cofee culture' of the west has picked well here in Kenya. We still prefer to take tea in our homes but when doing meetings we do coffee joints(and bars and choma places, but let's talk coffee!) How much would it cost to set up one? The interiors, those machines for coffee, staffing (I imagine I will need one 'good' guy, the rest will just have to be young people who can speak English.

You first need to identify a location. Secondly in terms of how much it costs I would urge You to visit a coffee shop with a note book and take down details ; no of chairs, tables , coffee machines , menu , number of staff , fittings/ décor. This way You can come with a cost estimate .

It cost 60 million to establish one java outlet. It cost 1 million dollars ( not Zim. Ones) to put up Brew Bistro. Take heart though, you are not looking to start a Java or are you? They must find it difficult....... those who have taken authority as the truth, rather than truth as the authority. -G. Massey.

Take heart though, you are not looking to start a Java or are you? urban coffee wouldnt have cost that much. neither is that small coffee place at the total petrol station at Nairobi West. People give up because they want to start up from the top. you can make it, it doesnt have to be a million dollar coffee shop, but you can get to that million dollar shop later.

Just trying to encourage a brother or sister. The way I see it, some guys have serious guts to put in that much cash in a coffee shop, therefore the bizna must be worth a try. However, dont skimp on the most important factor for success, location, location, location. They must find it difficult....... those who have taken authority as the truth, rather than truth as the authority. -G. Massey.

Totally on point Wendz A lot of these stories are usually made up to stop the competition. Read the book, The Lean Startup. You will be shocked at how very small startups are the ones that succeed vs the ones that start with 1 million dollars. Jose: If I make it through this thug life, I'll see you one day. The Lord is the only way to stop the hurt.
