The first bear -claw coffee "seed shop" in Shanghai opened the blind twin as the manager and barista

"Your coffee is made, please taste it." Yin Tianjian, wearing a cat ear hat and wearing a black apron, handed coffee to customers steadily, and the guests made a lot of admiration. On July 16th, a crooked "rubber" was appeared on the China Resources Times Square at the intersection of Zhangyang Road and Nanquan North Road. If you are interested in buying a cup of coffee, you will find that this is a coffee shop hosted by the blind barista Yin Tianbao and Yin Tianyou. This shop stands from the streets and lively crowds from the streets of the car. The love and expectations of countless public welfare people and visually impaired people have begun to grow.

Practice hundreds of blind guys every day to become a barista

Bear claw coffee was established in 2020. It was first dedicated to cultivating deaf and dumb baristas, because a "bear claw" stretched out of the cement wall passed coffee to the guests and quickly became a "net red" coffee shop. Today, 80%of bear -claw coffee employees are disabled. "Deaf and dumb people have become public welfare fashion, blind people, can they be a barista?" After opening several chain coffee coffee co -founders, Wang Yan, the founder of the coffee shop, communicated with friends last year, and instantly had a new idea. So in October 2021, Yin Tianbao, 22 years old, came to the bear -claw coffee headquarters to start his own cafeer training journey.

"Many people think that blind people seem to have the only professional path of a masseur. I think I can still have more choices, such as becoming a coffee shop chief." Yin Tianbao said with hope.

Compared to the deaf and dumb barista, the blind people want to be a barista, and it is even more difficult. Yin Tianbao, who has been athlete, has hearing, memory and endurance beyond ordinary people. It is really difficult to do it. It is common to practice hundreds of cups a day. "Yin Tianbao recalled that at the beginning of this year, he had been able to pull out a cute" thousand -layer heart "on the coffee. However, after two months of resistance at home, he immediately realized that he had "born". As a result, high -intensity exercises come back from scratch. After experiencing countless flowers, Yin Tianbao wanted to give up, but every time, his teacher and partner encouraged him: "It doesn't matter, let's come again, as long as you don't give up, we will always be with you." Yin Tianbao chose to persist to respond to the people who support him.

At the end of June, Yin Tianbao's twin brother, the same blind Yin Tianyou also came to the headquarters of the bear claw coffee, becoming the No. 2 employee of this shop. In mid -July, the brothers entered the "seed shop" and began to be familiar with the store; on July 12, Yin Tianbao finally pulled out the new coffee "thousands of hearts". On July 16th, the bear claw coffee and the public reviewed the name, and the first "seed shop" of the manager of the blind barista officially tried the business. During the trial business, all coffee is free of charge, and temporarily only provides two options: American and latte.

Recycled materials to create a blind coffee "seed shop" trial operation

Due to many reasons such as the epidemic, many catering industries are quite frustrated and difficult this year. The blind coffee shops opened by the store have attracted everyone to watch. When the reporter explored the shop, he saw that the people passing by praised the shop's cute shape.

The main appearance of the coffee shop is made of recyclable materials such as coffee residue, and the shop is a tailor -made operation space and machine tailor -made for blind baristas. The edge of the operating table is wrapped in segmented by wood, stainless steel, rubber and other materials -different materials correspond to different operating spaces such as cashier areas, clean areas, and cup areas. Yin Tianbao turned several laps in front of the reporter. When he stopped, as long as he touched the table with his hands, he could distinguish his position by touch and memory, and clearly told reporters to the accurate position of the coffee machine.

The coffee machine in the store is tailor -made for Yin Tianbao. The biggest difference from ordinary coffee machines is that its equipment description part is a plastic shell with various graphics. Different graphics represent different needs keys, such as "square" The button represents two concentrations, "circular" is four times concentrated, and "heart shape" represents hot water. This coffee machine has a relationship with the Fourth Expo. Wang Yan learned from the Fourth Expo Exhibition that it was founded in 1960 Italian coffee equipment brand-RHEA VEN-DORS produced a blind coffee machine. Wang Yan, who was looking for a special coffee machine, immediately contacted the company. After the other party heard the use of the machine, he immediately donated the coffee machine worth tens of thousands of yuan to the bear -claw coffee. I hope Yin Tianbao's case can inspire more disability. The enthusiasm for entrepreneurship for entrepreneurship. In the early stage of the trial business, RHEA CEO Andrea Pozzolini also specially sent a blessing for Yin Tianbao.

He and his younger brother have a total of 10%of the store. "There is another blind that will also join their team." Wang Yan said that they enjoy the same wages and other benefits of wages every month. If the benefits are good, as the manager and shareholder, they will have dividends at the end of the year.

During the trial business, Wang Hui, the teacher of Yin Tianbao, will always be with him. "As a barista, Tianbao will continue to practice. As a manager, Tianbao will also learn how to sell goods."

All parties help public welfare undertakings to explore the new ways of entrepreneurship and employment of disabled people. In addition to bear -claw coffee, they actively escort the blind cafes. In order to facilitate the blind coffee maker's convenience camp stores, the public comment also provides technical support. According to Wang Yan, a cash register of Meituan will be recently arrived at the store, so that Tianbao Tianyou can master the codes in the store to scan the code by "listening".

At present, this "seed shop" is the ninth store of bear -claw coffee in Shanghai. In the future, "Bear Claw Store" and "Seed Store" will also be used as two branches of bear -claw coffee, which are used as hearing and visually impaired coffee. The starting point of the teacher's employment and entrepreneurship. At the same time, they are also exploring the model of letting people with physical disability.
