Just reading my daily Communicafe report and came accross this article-

Andrew Hetzel, president of leading retail specialty coffee consultancy Cafemakers, LLC, will speak at the 2006 Tea & Coffee World Cup Exhibition & Symposium on Thursday, September 28, in Shanghai, China. The session, entitled "Specialty Coffee Brand Marketing" will highlight the importance of branding and present strategies used by top regional and global specialty coffee retailers to successfully develop and market

I was thinking of heading up to Shanghai for the T&C World cup, who else beside Andrew will be going??

Wow, that got picked up pretty fast - I think that it just went to press a few hours before you received the message.

Let me know if you will be there - would be great to meet you!

Its pretty likely. Have quite a few coffee mates in the region who will be going, and I am keen to look at the roasting operation of the CMA.Spa rep in Shanghai. Will keep you posted.

Hey Alun,

I'm here in Shanghai now setting up for the show this week. Will you be here for the conference? Anyone else for this group?

I'll be in the cupping labs, at the barista & latte art competitions and then chairing the symposium on Thursday - all are welcome to come by and introduce yourselves!
