Puerto Rico Coffee Expo, Puerto Rican Coffee Industry, San Juan, Puerto Rico, September 18 – 19, 2010
Back in May when I visited Puerto Rico I met Paul Gonzalez when he was promoting the Puerto Rico Coffee Expo. I told him that I was a coffee afcionada and that I would be more than pleased to put the information for this great event on my blog.
Puerto Rico is known for its coffee. I remember my grandmother always having her afternoon coffee. It is a ritual. A relaxing time to share with friends and neighbors.
“Puerto Rico es Cafe” is the motto for the Puerto Rico Coffee Expo which will be held Saturday 9/18 and Sunday 9/19 at the Puerto Rico Convention Center located at 100 Convention Blvd., San Juan, Puerto Rico 00907.
The Puerto Rico Coffee Expo will bring together the coffee community and related products in an effort to stimulate and reposition the Puerto Rican coffee industry.
The Expo will gather coffee brands, producers, roasters, distributors, restaurant owners, coffee shops, barista, coffee lovers, artisans, private organizations and government agencies that promote the coffee industry development.
The public will have the opportunity to learn more about the history, brands, new trends, barista art, and special coffees.
The exhibitors at the Puerto Rican Coffee Expo will have the opportunity to showcase their products and services to thousands of local and international visitors, while stimulating and promoting the production and quality of the Puerto Rican coffee.
This event will be opened to the general public and is free of charge.
The coordinators of the event is the Cube Group, Inc. It is a Puerto Rican organization founded in 2010 with the main objective of developing high impact cultural, socio-economic and entrepreneurial events in Puerto Rico. It is composed of three young guys who want to establish an annual event that will contribute to the culture, economy, and education within the fascinating world of coffee.
