Ep 11: Andrew McWilliam | A Modern Tribute to the Timeless Pairing of Coffee and Pastry

What comes to mind first when you think about coffee and donuts? For some, it's simply the Dunkin' Donuts brand or trips with to Tim Hortons before hockey games. For others, it's their favourite Seinfeld episode. Whatever mention of this dynamic duo conjures up in your mind, chances are it's both a positive and timeless one. It is hard to resist coffee especially in the context of it being paired with a righteous piece of pastry.In this episode we welcomed Andrew McWilliam, co-owner and operator of Ratio Coffee & Pastry in Vernon, BC. This establishment started out as a small coffee and pastry cart in Vernon and has evolved into a popular option for the locals. What began as a primary goal of simply providing Vernon with the best coffee and pastry turned into a full fledged, highly regarded business. (Tip: Pre-order a delicious assortment of donuts on any Thursday in preparation for Donut Friday!) Andrew is clearly the "coffee guy" of the operation however, and is happy to share his thoughts on this ever complex segment of the beverage market.As you can expect, we delve head first into the world of coffee and the conversation evolves from there. We explore small business and the leadership and business knowledge that the market demands of such a venture, as well as its correlation to the bigger businesses also devoted to coffee and pastry. Andrew has a demonstrable passion for coffee and, perhaps more importantly, for elevating the experience related to its consumption._______________Ratio Websitehttps://www.ratiocoffee.ca/Ratio Pastry Menuhttps://www.ratiocoffee.ca/daily-features/Ratio Bloghttps://www.ratiocoffee.ca/blog/Ratio on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/ratiovernon/Ratio on Instagram (@ratiovernon)https://www.instagram.com/ratiovernon/?hl=en_______________Small Town Wealth on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/smalltownwealth/?ref=br_rsSmall Town Wealth on Instagramhttps://insta-stalker.com/profile/smalltownwealth/David Scarlatescu on Instagram (@davidtescu)https://www.instagram.com/davidtescu/?hl=enShelby Bouchard on Instagram (@sbokanagan)https://www.instagram.com/sbokanagan/?hl=enClinton Barton on Instagram (@clbsounds)https://www.instagram.com/clbsounds/?hl=enThe Fig Bistrohttps://www.thefigbistro.ca/menu/Shelby Bouchard Real Estate on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/SQBRealEstate/?ref=br_rs Hosted on Acast.
