Coffee Tasting Club Announces Crowd-Funding Campaign on Seedrs

Nottingham-based coffee subscription service Coffee Tasting Club has officially announced the launch of its crowdfunding campaign through the crowdfunding equity platform Seedrs.

Since its launch in 2015, Coffee Tasting Club is now one of the UK’s leading multi-roaster coffee subscription clubs.
 
After spotting a gap in the market for premium coffee brands being made available in homes, founder Robert Deans created single stop shop for coffee lovers to taste the widest variety of premium roasts available.

At present, Coffee Tasting Club collaborates with premium UK roasters including 200 Degrees, Horsham Coffee Roasters, Footprint, North Star, Small Batch, Climpson & Sons, and York Coffee to name a few.  The business has already reached £350k in total revenue, with a customer base of over 14,000 people and growing.
 
Commenting on the campaign so far, Robert Deans says: “The way in which we consume coffee in the UK has changed drastically over the years. Since the launch of Coffee Tasting Club, our goal has remained the same. We want people to really sit down and enjoy top quality coffee from home and start a conversation.
 
“This is why we’re so excited to start this crowdfunding journey with Seedrs. Funding for our business will aid in our expansion across the coffee and coffee accessories market. This will result in more trade customers, higher average order values and higher reorder rates for Coffee Tasting Club.”
 
Seedrs is a top UK-based equity crowdfunding platform for new, start-up businesses. It currently has 648 funded investment deals under its belt, totalling £388m and counting invested into pitches for a range of companies.  
 
The official campaign will be open to the public from 16th July 2018. To date, Coffee Tasting Club already has confirmed pledges of 25,000 from their £100,000 target.
