Coffee is one of SfK MB Trading's strategic products. Lord willing, we at SfK desire to establish the entire value chain for coffee from production to consumption. So I am trying to meet people whenever possible.
I made a trip to Daegu to meet Mr. Gyung Do Jin, the founder and CEO of Hands Coffee, a missional business that IBA has produced. Hands Coffee has 100+ stores in Korea and 30+ stores in Yianjin Province, China.
He was open to collaborating with SfK on coffee. Also, he is involved with Now Mission, a mission agency focusing on BAMers and was willing to serve with SfK if there are things to be done together to produce synergy for His Kingdom. He appreciated the presentation material that I shared in introducing him to SfK Ministries. He asked me to share the material and I did gladly. We will see where this newfound relationship leads.
1Kg Coffee or Cafeir
I visited another coffee business located in Gwangju, Kyungki-do to meet up with Mr. Sang Ho Lee, the founder and CEO of Cafeir. The company roasts coffee beans and supply freshly roasted coffee beans to the buyers. They supply approximately one ton per day, using four roasting equipment of 40 tons, 20 tons, and 2 15 tons. In addition, they have designed and developed individually packaged drip coffee to end-users. The life of these products lasts for 3 months.
I also met with Mr. Shinho Lee, who runs Bless Bean that imports and distributes green beans. Reportedly, he is one of the top five distributors of green beans. Unlike Mr. Sang Ho Lee, who graduated from Yonsei University but are not a believer, Mr. Shinho Lee is a devout Christian and I thoroughly enjoyed our meeting.
I am not sure how these new relationships will develop, but it was encouraging to hear that they were willing to work together for the common good of people in the world, needless to say for the glory of God.
I also met up with Mr. Hyun Namgoong. He once worked for E-Land and also was CEO for Erom for 7 years. Now he is importing and distributing green beans. Apparently he is supplying green beans to Hands Coffee. He has developed a private brand coffee and selling it through Cconma, an on-line marketing platform. He has been training prospective cafe baristas to be deployed to other countries. In principle, we agreed to work together, but we are still exploring the possibilities. I trust that the Lord will lead us to fund the way that He designed in His time. We need to be patient while making conscious efforts.
It has been a blessing that I have resumed drinking coffee since I have been learning about coffee. - Jeffrey
