About Beans 2 Brew

Beans 2 Brew provides all business majors the opportunity to be involved in a real business. The idea was first conceived and put to action by a group of students from the Association of Entrepreneurs (ASE). Over the years, the coffee shop has grown from a mere table by the stairwell door to a flourishing business with a permanent stand and mini kitchen. In 2016, Beans 2 Brew expanded its horizons by incorporating clubs beyond ASE, including but not limited to the Supply Chain Management Club, Economics Club, and the American Marketing Association. In addition to staffing the coffee shop during business hours, all the clubs involved specialize in their particular field to contribute to the growth of Beans 2 Brew.
