3: Triple Rooster, Design, Coffee & Apple Pie: what is it all about?

4. Looking to the future with confidence!

 

5. What kind of government regulations did you have to implement?

While recording the videos we were growing our operating hours and our group of customers, even during the corona time we had a growing amount of daily visitors. However, while editing this article, we suddenly had to close down the complete shop. And although we knew we are in a residential building, we were running under the approval & protection of our landlord, yet that was not enough to stay under the radar. We are now looking for a new space where we can run with full commercial license.
 

6. How did you start-up your business again and on what capacity have you been operating?

Everything that was created and set up, has been a one-man show by myself. I designed, created, and operated everything for the shop, but of course with the loving support of my partner. The design studio is running on a pool of independent designers I have connected within the last 8 years. We support each other when needed, without investing in the overhead you would face otherwise.
