Back to business - Suresh's comeback in Nagpur
Suresh lost an espresso machine and grinder to a fire in the building and needs $450 to reopen a roadside café and support the family.
🇮🇳 Nagpur, Maharashtra, India691 views
For six years I have run a roadside café in Nagpur. In August, a fire in the building took an espresso machine and grinder. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 weeks.
This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment.
Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $450 goes:
• Replacing an espresso machine and grinder: $240
• Shop repairs and licensing: $85
• Initial stock: coffee and pastries: $125
Glad we found this place.
