Description:
Appalachian Sunrise Coffeehouse is a beverage/food service establishment located in Reedsville, West Virginia. The leased space is 1000 sf for $400 per month and the utilities are less than $75 per month thus far. We are on a Coca Cola vendor route with a 144 unit cooler inside the establishment. There is seating for 12 at cafe style tables and there is 1 co- restroom. Equipment consists of: 1 microwave oven, 2 toaster ovens, 1 coffee maker of 12 cup capacity, 1 low end espresso maker, 1 coffee bean grinder, several coffee cups, latte cups, saucers/pastry plates, silverware, pastry display case, 4 glass cake servers, compact refrigerator, 3 coffee carafes with high heat retention, and other sundries.
We started this business on a shoestring budget funded by meager savings and a decent tax return combined with a economic stimulus check. Even so, my working capital has proven to be insufficient and I need financial help.
