Spro Report, October 2010

Sales numbers are in for October 2010 and I thought I would share some statistics with the readership. Since Spro Hampden's coffee program is unique in the industry I was wondering how it might compare to other coffee programs out there.

The first two numbers comprise total coffee sales for October and the breakdown between brew bar and espresso-based beverages. Brewed Coffee totals include all coffees brewed via Vac Pot, Chemex, Pour Over, Eva Solo, Abid Clever, Aeropress, French Press and Cold Drip Tower for iced coffee.

TOTAL COFFEE SALES
Brewed Coffee - 44.3%
Espresso Drinks - 55.6%

These next figures are a breakdown of the various beverages made on the espresso bar with espresso coffee as a base component. These figures are the percentages of the 55.6% that comprises part of the Total Coffee Sales for October.

ESPRESSO DRINKS
Latte - 31.5%
Cappuccino - 22.2%
Americano - 13%
Mocha - 9%
Espresso - 7.3%
Macchiato - 3.9%

Thanks Simon for sharing. I think if we can get more owners and operators to share their numbers there can be a lot to learn about the business of coffee.
