We recently connected with Abhishil Kumar and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Abhishil, thanks for joining us today. We’d love to have you retell us the story behind how you came up with the idea for your business, I think our audience would really enjoy hearing the backstory.
Our story begins in the beautiful country of Bali, Indonesia, where we fell in love with the culture and the coffee. The unforgettable coffee experience we had there sparked a goal: to share the diverse and rich flavors of coffees from different regions of the world with as many people as possible, without the need for a long flight. That’s when Bean Burst was born—to bring a little happiness to the lives of our customers through the taste of exceptional coffee. I was trying to make specialty coffee more accessible. It’s fresh coffee made easy.
Abhishil, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
I am Abhishil, owner of Bean Burst and let me tell you a little about what we do. I go into the coffee industry because I wanted to make sure that everyone can have access to fresh coffee. Coffee is something that you drink everyday. In a time where quality is everything, why settle for grocery store shelf coffee? That is where Bean Burst comes in. We are a specialty coffee roasting company. The coffee beans are roasted after the order is placed on our website and shipped directly to your doorstep. This guarantees that the beans are as fresh as they can be. We offer coffee selections from around the world. If you name it, chances are, we carry is. Our main focus is to get the freshest coffee to you. It’s what we do. Bean Burst, freshly roasted specialty coffee.
Can you talk to us about how you funded your business?
At first, I thought that I would get a business loan but I did not know if it really was going to work out. I sold some of my stock market share and invested in starting the business.
We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?
I had to unlearn being an employee and learn how to be a business owner. I am constantly on the look out for an opportunity to talk about my coffee and offer a sample whenever I can.
