I show off my amazing cameraman skills (<—-painful sarcasm) in our latest video! As promised, we are documenting local business owners and their entrepreneurial adventures.
This video features Jon Stovall and Andrea Maize, the owners of Bevalo Coffee in downtown Salt Lake City. You will notice that both Jon and Andrea have an amazing power that involves disappearing and reappearing in the video that has nothing to do with poor editing on my part!
Jon and Andrea give some helpful hints for you budding entrepreneurs, and offer insight into the passion they possess for their products. I was immediately struck and impressed by the attention to detail they show in all aspects of their business. This included, but was certainly not limited to, the cleanliness of the shop, the great art on the walls, the overall ambiance, the handmade/organic treats, and the importance put on making the perfect cup of coffee (or tea!) using the best beans/leaves in town.
Bevalo is not your average coffee shop. The owners feel indebted to the hard work of everyone who makes their craft possible, especially the people who labor to grow and gather the beans and leaves. They know the background and history of the people and the product, and I was lucky enough to capture some of these stories in this video. I hope you enjoy getting to know Jon, Andrea, and Bevalo. Please let us know what you think by leaving a comment, and DEFINITELY go indulge in one of the amazing drinks/treats they offer. I recommend either a latte (Jon makes a killer latte!), or the peach Rooibos tea. Bevalo is located at 200 South 123 East in Salt Lake City. You can also find them on Twitter at BevaloCoffeeSLC !
