Started with Empathy

help a friend whose wife was diagnosed with cancer.
Motivation to start a business can sprout from anywhere. It can come from a hobby or a desire to help someone. Ivan, cofounded Kopikaya Indonesia, an express coffee shop chain due to empathy for a friend whose wife was diagnosed with cancer.
Starting from that empathy, Ivan and his co-founders started the business that their friend can manage and from there the Kopikaya Indonesia business grew.
Unique and Rich Coffee
Kopikaya offers a unique blend of coffee that is different from others. With the concept of 'richness', Kopikaya offers a variety of interesting coffee blends, with their signature being Cheese Coffee. By combining coffee with savory and salty foamed cheese, this coffee is definitely a must-try for all the cheese lovers out there.
Choosing an express F&B concept that is easy to run
Ivan and his co-founders decided to go with an express concept for Kopikaya because it's easier to operate and also lower operating costs. Unlike coffee shops with dine-in concepts, this grab-and-go concept is easier to operate. However, it isn't without its own challenges. Since it emphasizes speed and ease of ordering, the shop must use the right system to support the operations starting from ordering, payment to product manufacturing.
The way Ivan manages the express coffee business
To make it easier for him to run the business, Ivan entrusted the business to iSeller. Ivan had tried iSeller for his other business ventures and he had experienced how helpful it is in running the business. Hence, he also decided to entrust Kopikaya to iSeller.
