League City TX Coffee establishment looking to serve the keto community, needing recommendations

(Justin Hamilton (Hamenopi)) #1

Hey guys!
There’s a local coffee place which just started up and is already getting a lot of questions regarding bullet proof and keto friendly coffee.
Stocking HWC, Ghee, MCT, SF-Everything is great but their space is limited.
Does anyone know any reputable companies who’ve pivoted to business to business keto friendly coffee supplies and services?
I’d love to point them toward a good direction before the legion of mlm descends upon them.
Area is League City, Texas. (Between Houston and Galveston)
Any advice is appreciated.

Creating recipes and a menu is a core thing that eating places do. If they aren’t willing to work on those things it seems unlikely they are very interested. Then again if you brought them some recipes that were practical and fit with the ingredients they stock may be that would help.

It’s not that they are unwilling, I apologize if anything I said gave off that impression.
I was establishing I understand the core principles of ‘keto coffee’ and was inquiring whether we know of a decent company they can work with instead of having to go across the street and pick up kerrygold, hwc, and mct every day.

Most places will have food distributors that specialize in bars, restaurants, etc. If they were called they’d probably ask, what items are you looking for? So what items are you looking for? It occurs to me,is there a local bakery that would be willing to make keto compatible sweets and deserts for the shop? I would want to check that out.

Likely they’ll be able to work with a distributor that will sell them what they need just like their other supplies. Stocking stevia sweetened syrups, HWC, and regular real butter would be a phenomenal and easy start and, it should be fairly easy to find from a regular supplier. They could specifically advertise their “keto brew” with coffee blended with HWC, butter, and the customer’s choice of syrup and sweetener. It doesn’t need to be more complex than that and those ingredients wouldn’t take up huge amounts of space. I personally wouldn’t want to stock MCT as it can cause digestive upset which wouldn’t be great for business. Kerrygold is nice but unnecessary. Same thing with ghee. Maybe you can help them realize that it doesn’t need to be complicated for keto and that they can indeed order the 3 things from wherever they are getting the rest of their stuff.

Appreciate the advice. Thanks for mentioning about mct, i never hopped on that wagon, preferring just coconut oil when i ketod my coffee.
