WHO WE ARE
We started Finn Coffee in Colyton in Devon in December 2020 . From its humble beginnings serving coffee from an old store room hatch in an old tool shop and carpet show room, we have now created a wonderful community meeting place and brought something new to the area that people needed in the post covid era.
We have needed to expand to make our business viable in the current economic climate so 2 years ago we decided to invest in a coffee trailer to take on the road and supply our much sought after coffee to a wider audience. This was going to help us continue what we are doing and hopefully expand our offerings for many years to come.
THE THEFT
Last Tuesday night 28th May the Finn Coffee trailer was stolen outside the coffee shop in our private car park in Colyton.
We had only finished the van 2 days prior to it being stolen and had spent the last 2 years saving, planning and getting it to the right fit out to take around the festival circuit this summer. Not only have we had our beautiful trailer stolen we have also lost our business venture, which is devastating.
After contacting the police and engaging in a large far reaching social media campaign to get it back we have unfortunately run out of options.
NEXT STEPS
We have paid for all our pitches over the summer and it looks like there is no way of retrieving this money either so our only option is to start again. We are looking at trying to create something similar to what we have already built and restart our business that we have spent so long creating. We are looking to fundraise to get us back on the path we have spent so long building.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us in these heartbreaking times and off the back of all of this we want to continue to help build our community further.
