“Today I am an Executive Board Member! I will be speaking, writing & participating in events to share my story, the things I’ve learned on my journey, social media and entrepreneurial journey!”, says Brandon Ivan Pena
Brandon Ivan Pena is now a part of the 2022 Executive board at Fast Company. He owns coffee brands like 787 Coffee, Hacienda Iluminada and BrandOn, believes that New York is a place that inspires him to accomplish what he sets out to do. His coffee brand will soon close the year with 15 coffee shops in New York City. Brandon highlights that NYC has made all of this possible and has given him incredible growth opportunities to raise the bar in the coffee industry.
The main reason for him as a successful coffee owner is his habit of systematizing the detailed and tested process to create the desirable and delicious means of coffee. Brandon himself is too addicted to coffee. So, he owns a coffee farm named hacienda iluminada in Maricao, Puerto Rico, where they grow, process, and grind their coffee beans to create a product of exquisite flavour. These seeds are distributed in the three stores in San Juan DE Puerto Rico, twelve in New York City, and More under construction in the same city.
Brandon is one of such people who have the motivation of dignity and love behind their hard work and success. In his youth, he realized that there are very few Latin names in the business world and none of them are in the high market. So he made it his purpose to take his people’s name to the top. Today Brandon has earned huge respect among high ups of the industry and got a lot of connections. On the other hand, his zeal for coffee led him to create a coffee brand that is getting acknowledged at a huge level around the world. In short, he achieved his all goals i.e., honourable Latin name on top and his own taste coffee adored by the people.
“The first business magazine I ever purchased, the first business conference I ever paid for, the monthly subscription I waited anxiously, beyond belief!”, says the man himself.
