#MeetTheOwner of cafeconmigocoffee & 1659_cranberry, Derek Davies☕️🪴

⭐️ What inspired you to open your businesses?
"I was very inspired by a coffee shop I visited in Buenos Aires that felt very natural and calming. They had hanging chairs, plants, and great products. I took inspiration from many different places, people, and things and tried to accumulate all of it together as best as possible. Our second location in Cranberry came about when I met two other entrepreneurs, Amy who owns bloomspgh and Nicole who owns straightlineboutique. We thought it would be so cool to have all of our businesses under the same roof and create a mini market, which we called 1659_cranberry (also the business address)."

⭐️ What's your favorite part of being a business owner?
"Probably meeting so many amazing people everyday. I am lucky to chat with anyone and everyone and learn about so many interesting things, jobs, cultures, ideas, and general conversation. I am never bored and I learn so much everyday. I also am super lucky to work with such a great team, who are so creative, hardworking, and bring such good energy to the café and to our customers."

⭐️ What's been the best part about having a business in the greater Pittsburgh areas?
"When I was younger, I didn't appreciate Pittsburgh so much. Probably because I thought the grass was greener elsewhere but after I came back from university, and especially once I opened a business, I realized what an amazing city we live in."

⭐️ Any fun facts? 
"We are opening 2 new locations at Pittsburgh International Airport this year. One will be post-security, due to open up very soon and the second will be pre-security in the new landside terminal which is on track to open this Fall.

Oh! Another fun fact is that kletang_58 is a part-time barista for us."
