Nick is the CEO and founder of Bluestone Lane - an Australian-influenced hospitality brand based in New York.
Nick took Melbourne’s famed coffee culture - and while he didn’t quite bottle it - he brought it to the US and almost a decade after opening the first venue, there are now more than 60 Bluestone Lane cafes and coffee shops located throughout the United States.
In this episode:
- Nick shares the reason he took Australia’s coffee culture to the US
- Why finding the right management and leaders is critical in a startup’s journey
- Reveals why culture is the true IP (intellectual property) of hospitality that enables businesses to scale - and how high-performance culture influences the Bluestone team
- And talks about the true cost of coffee and whether consumers are willing to pay
