Lunch & Debut - It's "Bean" a Successful Venture GMM091110

Summary: Hear the Bean Baron’s success story and meet our newest Chamber members at this month’s luncheon!


Who would have guessed that one man’s passion for coffee would lead to one of the most renowned specialty coffee roasters in the nation, located right here in the Kansas City Metro area?

Danny O’Neill, a.k.a. the Bean Baron, fell in love with coffee during his senior year of high school when he spent a year in Costa Rica as an exchange student. On November 22, 1978, Danny picked his first batch of coffee beans and 15 years later he founded The Roasterie in the basement of his Brookside home.

Today, The Roasterie’s blends can be found in espresso bars, coffeehouses, fine restaurants, high-end grocers, offices, etc. Attend this month’s membership luncheon to learn more about Danny’s entrepreneurial experience!

In addition to an insightful program, our newest Chamber members will be presented in our quarterly "Chamber Debut". Each attendee will receive a description from each business that has joined the Leawood Chamber in the past 90 days.

The reservation deadline for this event is Thursday, November 5th by 5:00 pm. Sorry, we are unable to offer refunds for cancellations received after 5:00 pm November 5th.
