Within a year, his focus changed and he purchased the company, now doing business as Coffee Perks. By the end of 2007, he reached an agreement and obtained sole ownership of the company. His industry leading foresight has advanced Coffee Perks to the largest independent in the state of Florida. With the support of a tremendous team at Coffee Perks and his family, the future is bright.
