Optional Revenue
A High-Margin Revenue Stream Most Roasters Miss
Roast green coffee owned by other businesses — cafés, restaurants, brokers, chocolate makers — for a per-pound fee. You don't buy the coffee. You don't pay for packaging. They do. Net margins typically run 40–60%. Adds revenue without competing with your own brand.
