On today’s episode of #localbites we’re welcoming Bailey Cherry, marketing and events coordinator for Equator Coffee. Opening in 1998, Equator Coffee has been roasting and selling coffee while caring for the farmers who are the foundation of their business. Bailey got involved with Equator Coffee when she moved towns and applied for a job at the cafe and never looked back. From someone who didn’t like coffee to a coffee lover, Bailey has learned to love not only the coffee but also the people she serves and the staff she works with. She is sharing with us where Equator gets its coffee and how they uphold fair trade values. Ever wonder what it’s like to own a roastery and a café? Bailey is talking to us about the pros and cons of this as well as what it’s like to sell wholesale to your competitors. Equator Coffee is focused on their local community and gives back where they are able to support those that support them, both in Ottawa and where their coffee beans come from. Bailey is also talking us through how she shifted from barista to marketing and events coordinator. Her day to day looks busy, but she is focused in on Equator Coffee’s mission of “From crop to cup”.
