The business offers specialized coffees, teas, a full service bakery, homemade sandwiches, soups, and salads. It was once a hotspot but for the past five years business has been declining.

After assessing their request, needs and wants, we will position a product line based on its competitive strengths, which we believe will be understood and valued by our customers.…
