GEE that was great!



Last Night we were treated to an amazing evening at General Espresso Equipment in Greensboro, NC. GEE is the U.S. Distributor of Astoria espresso equipment. Espresso Parts is proud to be an Astoria dealer and part of the greater Astoria family. UmbertoTerrini and Gary Horne are two great personalities in the world of espresso and super gracious hosts. They really out did them selves this time around.

We were bused to Greenboro in a charter bus with many of the best people in coffee. It was a kick! General Espresso's facility is top notch to say the least. A standard, for many companies to aspire to. When we arrived the BBQ was going and a large 11 piece band was busting out R&B tunes much to the delight of those in attendance.

We toured the facility and were super impressed by the how organized everything was. Lot's of espresso equipment and parts, so you know I was happy ;-) We got some great ideas for our new shop from this vist as well.

Umberto busted out his Fiat for show and tell and a quick spin in the parking lot! Cool stuff for sure.

It was an excellent evening all the way around. The hospitality of these folks was fantastic.
Thanks to everyone at GEE for a fantastic evening. You folks are truly the best!
