Episode 32- Beach Loveland Owner of Loveland Coffee

Beach Loveland has had a long-time love of coffee and in building a community around coffee. He has been working in the specialty coffee industry for over 10 years and the service industry for over 15 years. Beach, along with his wife, Jessica, have had a vision of bringing the community together through their love of coffee and guidance of the Lord. The dream began with Beach becoming a barista and managing a coffee house in a nearby town. The ultimate goal was to open a storefront in Irmo, South Carolina. Perspective shifted slightly when the opportunity to open a drive-thru kiosk came their way. The Loveland’s launched and funded a very successful Kickstarter campaign with huge support from their local community. The Loveland Coffee drive-thru kiosk opened in December 2012 with a passion to provide quality coffee and top-notch consumer service. In the summer of 2016, Beach launched his own roastery, where he roasts small batched, single-origin, certified fair trade organic coffee.
