Exciting Expansion for Kava Konnection in Greenville!

Kava Konnection Expanding Footprint and Wholesale Production in Greenville

In a significant move for the city of Greenville, South Carolina, the popular Kava Konnection is set to expand its footprint and venture into wholesale production. Known for bringing the traditional Pacific drink, kava, to the area in 2014, Kava Konnection has been a staple for those seeking a unique social beverage experience.

Expansion Plans and New Space

After establishing a brick-and-mortar bar in Hampton North in 2015, Kava Konnection is now gearing up to move into the space next door currently occupied by Bossy Baker, which is closing its doors. The expansion comes as a natural progression for the business, as they have been facing space constraints during peak hours.

Co-owner Gabriel Coggins expressed excitement about the expansion, recognizing the need for additional room to accommodate their growing customer base. With plans to utilize the new space for wholesale production, Coggins aims to bottle their kava products for distribution to local venues and beyond.

Product and Growth Strategy

Kava Konnection offers a range of kava-based products, including kava shots, kava refreshers, hot and frozen kava drinks, and kava cocktails. Kava, a non-alcoholic beverage made from the root of the kava plant, is known for its earthy flavor profile and social benefits. Coggins envisions expanding their reach to kava bars nationwide and potentially retail outlets like Whole Foods in the future.

With the new space acquisition nearly doubling their current operation size to about 1,500 square feet, Kava Konnection is poised for growth in both production capacity and market presence. The expansion is expected to be completed by early 2025, marking a significant milestone for the business.

Commitment to Quality and Community

As a young entrepreneur who has received recognition for his efforts, Coggins remains focused on maintaining the authenticity and cultural significance of kava. He emphasizes the importance of respecting the origins of the drink and ensuring that it is not exploited for commercial gain.

Despite the growth and expansion, Kava Konnection stays true to its roots of providing a communal space for patrons to enjoy a beverage that promotes socialization without the adverse effects of alcohol. The non-addictive nature of kava makes it a popular choice for those looking for a relaxing and social drinking experience.

Looking Ahead

With the upcoming expansion and foray into wholesale production, Kava Konnection is poised to make a mark in the beverage industry, offering a unique and culturally significant product to a wider audience. The move reflects the business’s commitment to quality, community, and sustainable growth.

Stay tuned for more updates on Kava Konnection’s expansion journey as they continue to bring the essence of kava to Greenville and beyond.
