Arbour Coffee came out for our Groundbreaking Ceremony and did a fabulous job from start to finish. They went above and beyond to customize every piece with our logo and branding.

Featured Activation

Kayali Campus Tour Five scents, five recipes

Kayali took its fragrance tour to five university campuses across the Southeast. Our event partners brought us in for the drinks: five custom recipes, each one made to pair with a Kayali scent.

We canned 3,750 of them, handed out alongside perfume samples and prize giveaways. Our partners handled the setup, props and vehicles. The drinks were all ours.

Questions

Brand Activation FAQs

Power, space, timing, and pricing questions we hear most from brand teams and agencies.

Just one standard wall outlet per cart and someone on-site to greet the barista when they arrive — that's genuinely it. We bring our own extension cord, so the outlet doesn't need to be right next to where the cart sits. Running more than one cart? We'll ask for separate outlets so nothing trips.

Enough to set up comfortably and let a line form without blocking foot traffic — there's no strict minimum. Whether it's a tight retail floor or an open beachfront space in Myrtle Beach, mention it when you request your quote and we'll walk through it with you before you book.

Baristas arrive 60–75 minutes before your start time for setup, so the hours you booked are hours of actual pouring — not time spent unloading equipment. Breakdown afterward is handled just as smoothly, without anyone from your team needing to supervise it.

It's a flat quote, not a per-cup charge. Pricing comes down to three things — guest count, service duration, and location — and you get back one number with unlimited drinks included, so there's no surprise math later. A 50% deposit locks in your date.

Yes — this is where brand activations get fun. Popular add-ons are a full cart decal wrapping the espresso cart in your branding, a latte printer that prints your logo directly on top of each drink, and custom cups. Mention branding when you request your quote and we'll build it into the plan.

For bigger activations or high-traffic spaces — think a retail pop-up in Cary — we can bring an additional cart and barista team so the line keeps moving instead of building up. Share your expected turnout and time window when you request a quote and we'll staff it accordingly.
