Our Story
At Southeastern Roastery we believe that communities are networked over space and time, transforming us into our greater selves. At Southeastern Roastery, we evolve by building together, across communities, expanding possibilities with compassion. Our evolution happens to be in the service of crafting mindfully delicious, ethical coffees.
Our Ambition
Purchasing a 35K roaster will add to our desired "fleet" of roasters, quadrupling our roaster capacity from 40-60 lbs an hour to roughly 280 lbs per hour. This reduces the cost of roasting (via labor), providing a larger return on investment for each pound of coffee roasted and offering savings to our customers. Similarly, semi-automatic packaging and bag filling via purchases of these equipment will also reduce costs (via labor) of production. Saving time on labor will allow more time for further sales and business development for further growth opportunities.
