It was in 1999 when we at Supramatic decided to share our coffee and espresso expertise in the commercial sector with the public by offering a larger selection of coffee and espresso related merchandise to the home user. We opened Espresso Planet our retail division, a small shop down on Lakeshore in Etobicoke:
At the same time we opened a little Cafe offering any specialty coffee beverage you could think of. Our signature drink was pressure brewed coffee from our commercial Schaerer Demo machines. Desserts and pastries were also on the menu. Here's a sample of our menu from way back then:
Our demo area was crammed in the middle of the coffee shop, take a look:
We soon became a shopping destination for quality espresso machines. As a result we launched the EspressoPlanet.com website our online retail store which quickly grew to Canada's top ranked website.
After a couple of years we realized our strength was not in the coffee shop business but passing on our knowledge to customers helping them selecting the right coffee and espresso solution. So we closed the cafe and increased our retail store floor space and also grew our website further.
After 6 years, In May of 2005 we moved to a new retail store location on Dixie and Dundas. After another 6 years, September 2011, we had to move again. We are now at 1020 Brevik Place in the heart of Mississauga.
