Johann Potgieter or better known as "Pottie" by the mountain biking community has always had a deep passion for coffee and community.
The post-ride coffee and socialisation with fellow bikers were always more important to this coffee connoisseur than the actual bike ride itself.
Pottie ventured to build a business as well as a community that combines both of his two biggest passions in life and so Pottie’s Coffee was born.
Pottie’s Coffee aims to create an inviting and friendly environment where biking enthusiasts can enjoy a high-quality coffee while having post-ride conversations/discussions.
The first coffee shop opened its doors in Port Elizabeth at the Cyclo Pro Premises in 2018.
Pottie then succeeded in expanding his business and franchise by opening another coffee shop at Hooggekraal in Cape Town & his most recent one in Simondium which is a mere 10-minute drive from the beautiful Paarl valley.
