EPISODE 35 - BEN BURNS & CIARAN GAFFNEY OF THE COFFEE EXCHANGE

Founders of The Coffee Exchange, Ben Burns & Ciaran Gaffney join me this week to tell the story behind their start up business that launched at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020.

The Coffee Exchange, is an online marketplace which has your favourite coffee and brewing equipment available for order and delivery ensuring  you will always have your caffeine fix! It is the first coffee marketplace in Ireland offering an alternative revenue stream for Irish roasters!

Ben & Ciaran chat about the brand, how sourcing your coffee beans is now more accessible and how they are supporting local roasters through offering them another stream of income with their service.

Additionally, I hear about Ciaran's journey from academy to the senior team with Connaught, finding form in Zingari Richmond in New Zealand before signing for Pro 14 side Zebre in Italy where he unfortunately suffered an injury that meant his career was cut short.

I was delighted to announce that The Coffee Exchange has come on board as The Be Ready Training Podcast sponsor going forward to what will no doubt be an exciting partnership.
