A few weeks ago, Velopresso trike 004 was crated up ready for its long journey to Adelaide, Australia, while trike 006 took to the Atlantic heading for Fort Lauderdale, USA, where their respective owners – The Bean Peddler and Coffee Hub Cafe – eagerly await their arrival. Trike 005 was delivered by road to Luxembourg city, where new startup Coffee Rocket will operate. Meanwhile back at our London factory, work continues on the next mini-batch, with trikes 008, 009, 010 and 011 being prepared for shipping in early September to Spain, Switzerland, Australia and Canada – just as soon as the new batch of grinders arrives from our Kent-based precision engineers. When those trikes are put into service there will be 15 Velopressos in action in 8 different countries around the globe, and more on the way. For a small startup in the middle of its first year of production, this feels like great progress!
