A specialty coffee roastery and café brand that has built a strong following among urban professionals and digital nomads is now preparing for its next phase of expansion. The business focuses on ethically sourced single-origin beans, in-house roasting, and a community-driven café environment designed for both social interaction and remote work. Since opening its flagship location, monthly revenue has grown steadily, with consistent repeat customers and increasing wholesale inquiries from local restaurants and boutique hotels.
The business operates in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, and is strategically located in a mixed residential and commercial district with high foot traffic. Over the past 18 months, the café has established a reputation for high-quality roasting standards and sustainable sourcing practices. Demand for wholesale supply and subscription-based coffee delivery has increased significantly, prompting the need for expanded roasting capacity and a second retail location.
The company is currently seeking AUD 140,000 in private investment capital to support expansion. The objective is to increase roasting output, secure a larger production space, and launch a second café location within the metropolitan area to meet growing customer demand.
The investment capital will be allocated carefully across several operational priorities. Approximately AUD 60,000 will fund upgraded commercial roasting equipment and ventilation systems to increase production efficiency. Around AUD 35,000 will go toward leasing and renovating a second café location, including interior fit-out and essential fixtures. Roughly AUD 25,000 is designated for branding, digital marketing campaigns, and the launch of an online subscription platform for recurring coffee delivery. The remaining AUD 20,000 will serve as working capital for staffing, supplier contracts, and early-stage operational stability during expansion.
Investors are offered a structured revenue participation model. Rather than issuing traditional equity shares, the business proposes a profit-sharing agreement in which 15 percent of net monthly profit will be distributed among investors until each participant has received 130 percent of their initial investment. For example, an investor contributing AUD 20,000 would be eligible to receive AUD 26,000 in total repayment over time. Based on projected growth rates and confirmed wholesale agreements, the estimated repayment timeline is between 18 and 30 months.
As with any small business expansion, there are inherent risks. Market competition within the specialty coffee sector is strong, and economic conditions may affect discretionary consumer spending. To mitigate these factors, the company has diversified revenue streams through wholesale supply contracts, subscription services, and seasonal product launches. Additionally, supplier agreements are locked in at fixed pricing for the next 12 months to reduce cost volatility.
The founder has more than ten years of experience in hospitality and coffee roasting, previously managing operations for a regional café group before launching this independent venture. The current business operates without long-term debt and maintains positive monthly cash flow. Expansion is aimed at capturing unmet wholesale demand and increasing brand visibility across the city.
