ECOM Village at the SCA in Chicago
Two weeks ago, our ECOM Village was present at the Specialty Coffee Association Expo in Chicago, Illinois ! 🎉
For this event, we brought together some members of the ECOM specialty family to present their best coffee through multiple daily cuppings, and share our expertise in the coffee industry. It was a great place to connect with our producers, roasters, and artisan coffee makers, as we explored the boundless possibilities that the coffee world has to offer. 🌏
Enjoy watching the highlights to see how it went! ☕
