In today’s episode we’re bringing you an interview with a true hospitality legend and genuine artisan, Tony Papas. Tony is a multi-faceted entrepreneur, with a global career spanning Michelin-starred restaurants, a boutique bakery, specialty coffee and most recently, developing an olive farm in Southern Italy.
In this conversation, Tony discusses his early background in hospitality before joining New Zealand-based specialty roaster Allpress Espresso and launching the business in London and Europe.
Tony also shares his business instinct of knowing when to jump in and when to step away and the importance of good communication and fostering a cohesive team culture by bringing every member of the team along on the adventure.
