Summary: Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller approves new Kona coffee pods packaging design paving way to test two-day shipping to the Lower 48 states, Alaska, Hawaii for orders from Pooki’s Mahi® subscription platform.
San Francisco, CA January 5th, 2019
Silicon Valley luxury beverage firm Pooki’s Mahi® announced today Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller new Kona coffee pods packaging design paves the way to test two-day shipping to the Lower 48 states, Alaska, Hawaii for orders from Pooki’s Mahi subscription platform.
Pooki’s Mahi Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller explains, “I manage Pooki’s Mahi® supply chain including allocating inventory to our top customers. Requiring suppliers to fit into Pooki’s Mahi Just In Time (JIT) model eliminates firms that will never meet our high standards like providing lip service instead of fixing escalations or go-betweens that give the program management role terrible reputation with excessive nagging to complete a task. Pooki’s Mahi® controls inventory for our retailers, coffee subscribers, and loyal customers. A performance by sales channel allocates inventory. Inventory allocations prioritize orders from Pooki’s Mahi loyal customers and coffee subscriptions over lower performing marketplaces. I limited inventory allocated to underperforming resellers.”
“Pooki’s Mahi 100% Kona coffee pods are 100% recyclable from a state of the art certified manufacturing facilities. Offering recyclable 100% Kona capsules helps mitigate price increases. Pooki’s Mahi introduced 100% Kona coffee in 100% recyclable capsules in mid-2014. Pooki’s Mahi is testing complementary two-day shipping in the USA for their recyclable 100% Kona coffee pods,” the Silicon Valley technology executive explains.
“Certificate of Insurance (COI), California Seller Permit and Statement of Information are required to resell Pooki’s Mahi 100% Kona coffee pods, Kona KaKao™, Matcha Matcha Man®, Kafpresso™ Nespresso coffee pods. I will not consider firms unable to provide Pooki’s Mahi their company’s certificate of insurance, lacks technology platform to support established supply chain processes, or is unable to provide liability ownership,” says Pooki’s Mahi Komo Kitty℠ Creative Director.
Pooki’s Mahi MeowHattan Project is a multiyear effort to build an efficient supply chain with a robust technology platform. Pooki’s Mahi Founder/CEO interviewed over 1000 potential firms since 2012. New manufacturing facilities were selected after a very lengthy review. The state of the art facilities passed Pooki’s Mahi Founder/CEO prolonged supply chain capability due diligence. Pod manufacturing facilities are registered, approved, and FDA certified.
Pooki’s Mahi Kona coffee capsules will be the first set of Kona KaKao™ coffee pods manufactured in the new FDA certified facility. Pooki’s Mahi 100% recyclable capsules use certified 100% Kona coffee beans sourced from Kona, Hawaii through direct trade relationships. Pooki’s Mahi plans on expanding the Kona KaKao™coffee pods and Matcha Matcha Man® tea pods in 2019 with Kafpresso™ Kona Nespresso coffee pods and a variety pack of Kafpresso™ coffee capsules.
The cost to manufacture sustainable 100% Kona coffee pods for Pooki’s Mahi significantly increased. Firms used to produce raw materials and make individually wrapped mesh pods failed to meet Pooki’s Mahi stringent supply chain metrics, lost inventory, and business operations ceased to exist. Limited availability for materials to manufacture quality mesh coffee pods and 100% Kona coffee is driving price increases. Increased pricing to fulfill, ship products, and operation overhead costs are passed to the customer. Silicon Valley food and beverage brand increased pricing for most of its products.
Pooki’s Mahi manufacturing facilities use licensed Q-Graders and a sensory panel to finalize quality of each pod, Kona coffee roast profile and finalize the bill of material specs. Nutrition information, California Prop 65 and product information is designed onto Pooki’s Mahi ship-ready packaging. Each Kona coffee pods are nitrogen flushed, formed with a high oxygen barrier, and compatible with coffee makers using 1.0 and 2.0 single serve brewing technologies.
Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller continues to improve packaging designs. Pooki’s Mahi can control shipping costs with compact packaging designs. Pooki’s Mahi is testing complimentary two-day shipping to the Lower 48 states, Alaska, and Hawaii with the small 8-6-4 packaging for orders received on Pooki’s Mahi subscription platform. Customers can order 100% Kona coffee pods, Kafpresso Kona Nespresso coffee pods once or on a coffee subscription plan.
Complimentary two-day shipping will not be offered to wholesale coffee club orders. Complimentary transportation is provided for orders from global retailers or marketplaces like Amazon or Walmart. Pooki’s Mahi Founder/CEO Leslie Magsalay-Zeller manages the supply chain. Pooki’s Mahi controls design, manufacturing, and distribution of the prized Kona coffee capsules.
