King Carlos Coffee has onboarded many of its 80+ venues from another roaster across QLD, VIC and NSW. The fear is always the same: a gap in supply or a rocky changeover. Here's how it's handled.
Switching coffee suppliers is straightforward when it's run properly. King Carlos lets you sample first, coordinates the changeover so there's no gap in supply, tunes your machine, and trains your team on-site. Carlos is on the line when service gets busy. Whenever you're ready, start with a $40 sample pack.

How the changeover works
The worry is understandable: coffee is on your menu every minute you're open, so a messy switch is a real risk. The answer is a roaster who plans it with you rather than just shipping beans and hoping.
King Carlos coordinates the timing so your new supply is in before the old runs out, dials your machine to the new blend, and trains your baristas so the first cup off the change is right. Carlos stays reachable while you settle in.
