The time for delicious coffee at associations

News December 2, 2020 Nick Murauer

Why now is the right time. 

Minister van Ark for Medical Care and Sports briefly mentioned it last week. Sports are vital when the Corona crisis is over. Why? The Netherlands has a unique infrastructure when it comes to sports. 

For example, did you know that in Europe on average 12% of people are members of a sports club? While in the Netherlands this is 27% on average! Just to give some comparison material... We are followed by Germany & Denmark with both 23%, that means the Netherlands is the largest in Europe! How cool is that? 

What is also interesting... According to Eurobarometer, there are a number of reasons for participating in a sport in most EU countries. And you might have guessed it. The main reasons are staying healthy, building fitness and looking good. And yes... The eye wants something too 😉 Interestingly, in the Netherlands fun is mentioned as one of the main reasons to play sports. 

Back for a moment to that infrastructure we were talking about. A survey of the number of sports providers/associations in the Netherlands confirmed the size of this infrastructure.

In 2019, there were over 26,000 sports associations in the Netherlands. 26.000! With over one million volunteers and 75 sports associations. And that in our little chilly country ... 

The Corona crisis has thrown a spanner in the works when it comes to club life. The 1.5 meter distance and the closed canteens do not make things more sociable.

Because, of course, exercise is fun. It keeps you healthy. And you work on your fitness. But what may actually be even more important for members of associations is having fun.

Having a nice cup of coffee together, or something stronger of course... Laughing, talking and maybe even singing. How we miss that conviviality!

But one thing is certain. When the time finally comes. That canteens may open again. The tap can be reconnected. The dust can be wiped off the sound system. That's when things will go wild.

Then the sports fields will be full again and the canteens filled. We can't wait any longer!

Why is it precisely now time for delicious coffee?

Our message to associations is simple. Get ready for this moment. Polish the glasses and bar, hook up that tap and make sure you have a well-stocked freezer with bitterballs. And last but not least... make sure your coffee supply is well organized

Because it is and remains the favorite drink of many a Dutchman. A delicious cup of coffee. In different shapes and sizes, of course. Lungo, Espresso, Cappuccino, Latte, Koffie verkeerd, need we go on?

And although a "normal" cup of coffee is still a favorite, the demand for these specialty coffee drinks is growing! And of course, as an association, you don't want to disappoint members and visitors.

So what do you choose? A professional machine that gives you a choice of all these drinks, of course. With freshly roasted beans and a refrigerator for fresh milk. If only that could be combined in a concept with perfect service and all accessories in a conveniently arranged webshop... That would be great....

The coffee concept for associations!

We've got a surprise for you! Because that's exactly what we offer associations. A crystal clear concept where associations without investment professional equipment, freshly roasted beans and perfect service. At a fixed price per cup.

The association sets the selling price, so count that profit! How interesting is that? 

So does it get any more beautiful from here? Yes indeed! Because in addition to members, visitors, volunteers and employees being able to enjoy delicious coffee at your club, there is more. CoffeeClick will be your club's newest sponsor!

What does that look like? There are many options available. For example, previous clubs have chosen shirt, board, ball, tournament and even apparel among other sponsorships! Discuss the many options with one of our advisors here.
