About 12 years ago, Garvey McConnell started up a small coffee roastery in the tiny Ciskei village of Hamburg that is his home. Some might call it a micro roastery, but actually it's more like a nano roastery — Hand Made Coffees is about as small-scale and artisanal as coffee roasting gets.
In the beginning, he needed a specialized packaging supplier, flexible enough to accommodate his very small needs — and he still needs that today.
Supporting Small Businesses
I remember one of my first conversations with Chris, when he said: 'We will be able to help with those needs too, when you grow to need them!' I guess that might still happen one day, but until then I remain grateful for their willingness to help the smallest of businesses like mine.
What pouches do they use?
Hand Made Coffees use our stand up pouches for their coffee. The pouches keep the beans fresh and provide a professional, shelf-ready presentation for their artisanal product.
