KENYA · GUIDE 0187 · EDITION 4.2
Mobile coffee cart in Kenya
Run a mobile coffee cart with a limited service menu.
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional mobile cart booking: forty prepaid 250 ml coffee servings during one office break, with a limited menu approved by the host. Coffee and milk allocations below are hypothetical purchasing assumptions, not drink formulations. Four spare cup sets are explicitly costed. The cart and machine already exist; venue fees, acquisition costs and any extra staff require separate allocation.
Who is the first customer?
Office sites and event visitors.
