Ann Arbor’s Beyond Juice to be foothold for BoNa Coffee’s U.S. expansion

Michael Policella has no intention of competing with Starbucks or other coffeehouses in the Ann Arbor area.

Instead, Policella, owner of Beyond Juice, 529 E. Liberty St., wants a quality coffee product for his customers in addition to the store’s healthy smoothies and sandwiches.

Beyond Juice is offering Philippines-based BoNa Coffee, and hopefully by the start of September, BoNa will have a noticeable presence in the store.

Beyond Juice marks the first step for BoNa Coffee’s launch into the U.S. market.

“We’re not trying to do any of that stuff like Starbucks or Biggby’s,” Policella said. “We just want to offer a simple, but good, cup of coffee.”

Founded in 2006, BoNa Coffee, announced its plan in March for international expansion beginning with Machau, China. According to BoNa’s website, expansion plans include Dubai, United Arab Emirates; Vancouver, B.C.; Shanghai, China; and Hong Kong.

Policella hasn’t started promoting BoNa’s presence in his store as he’s waiting on the corporate office to supply some signage and other material.

“We’ve got some discussion to go with the company on the best way to brew it,” Policella said. “We’ve been slow off the mark because we’re the first place and we’re trying to get some other things. They had a particular merchandising display they wanted us to make but we haven’t got the drawings yet.”

Policella wants to have everything in place by the time students return to campus.

“What BoNa has put all of its effort into is coming out with a blend that essentially doesn’t have an aftertaste,” Policella said. “It’s just a nice cup of coffee.”

BoNa Coffee’s first store opened in Parañaque, Philippines, in November 2006.
BoNa purchases its beans from local farmers to produce a blend it promotes as “smoother than Sumatra.”

BoNa Coffee Holdings Corp. Introduces New BoNa Coffee Packaging for International Markets

NEW YORK, NY–(Marketwire – March 2, 2010) – BoNa Coffee Holdings Corp. (PINKSHEETS: BCHC) introduces a widely known marketing strategy in order to entice its international consumers.

Our company plans to bring back the traditional coffee experience which traces back to the 19th century, when the Philippines produced US$150 million dollars worth of coffee making it the fourth largest and most favored exporter of coffee in the world. This, along with BoNa’s signature of a healthier option combined with world-class packaging design, poses a promise of good returns that adds to the bottom line of the company.

CEO Luis Gonzalez adds, “These pre measures in retail are carefully being planned to ensure successful entrance in the foreign market.

Letter to Shareholders by BoNa Coffee Holdings Corp.’s President & CEO, Jose Luis Gonzalez

The following is a letter to shareholders by BoNa Coffee Holdings Corp. (PINKSHEETS: BCHC) President & CEO, Jose Luis Gonzalez:

Dear BCHC shareholders,

Greetings!

I would like to update you personally on the state of BCHC, its subsidiaries, and our various expansion projects.

As you all might have heard by now, the Philippines was recently battered by a series of tropical hurricanes, which left much of the country in a state of calamity. Thousands of homes were submerged, thousands of families displaced, and hundreds of people lost their lives. There are still numerous areas that lie submerged under water.

I want you to know that BCHC is committed to its people. First and foremost, it is people that make this company what it is, and therefore it is these people that are the focus of our efforts. We have been ensuring the safety and well-being of our employees.

This calamity also affected our recent plans in becoming current with the pink sheets. Our corporate attorney was a victim of this flood. His house, cars and important documents were submerged which included our documents for filing. We are currently getting all the documents together again to be able to update our current status.

Also, BCHC has been supporting Lifeline Foundation, a non-profit organization, whose aims include child welfare, education, and disaster and relief efforts in the Philippines. This foundation worked hand-in-hand with the ABS-CBN Foundation, Sagip Kapamilya, which was one of the largest responders to the natural calamities that befell so many.

Our goals remain the same, and it is with renewed faith in the strength of the BCHC team that we are following through on these goals — the expansion into the US markets and the planting of more BoNa Coffee Company branches throughout southeast Asia.

We have several inquiries regarding our step towards the US market, since several options have presented themselves to us. We therefore have been carefully considering the best possible moves that will benefit our company and our shareholders. Rest assured that our plans have not changed in creating a competitive brand throughout the world.

As we aid in recovery and rebuilding efforts, we see that this is merely a delay in our timetable. And yet we see the positive in all this, for the BCHC team has certainly gotten stronger as a result of the tragedies.

In behalf of the BCHC team,

Sincerely yours,

Jose Luis G. Gonzalez
