Marley Coffee to Compete with Starbucks?

Vodpod videos no longer available.

This is not a bad idea since almost every time I go in Starbucks they’re playing a Bob Marley song. Add to that the fact that Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee has repeatedly been rated the highest quality coffee in the world year after year.

Bob Marley’s son Rohan Marley is running the operations, and his motivations are to empower farmers in Jamaica, The Caribbean, and The World to grow organic coffee while still being able to earn a buck.

The company has been public now, and at 67 cents a share even I can afford to pick up a few hundred. The ticker symbol is MYCF and it trades on the OTC for now.
