Prest

Friends! Erica & I are moving to Salt Lake City next week & cannot take Sasha! Literally every single rental property out there has breed restrictions unfortunately. So we are looking to rehome our sweet girl. She is a 3.5 year old pitbull. She weighs 58 pounds. She is a very loving dog & likes to snuggle in bed or on the couch if you invite her up. She is not good with cats & wants to eat anything small & furry. She is ok with other dogs if they are properly introduced. She is protective of the house & is good with new people once she smells them & sees they are friends. She is good with small children. She has all of her shots & is spayed. Please share with anyone who you may think would be interested in taking her & would be a good match.

Hi everybody! Long time no talk. So here’s a Prest update: First of all, thank you everyone so much for coming out on our last day of business August 28th! Alec and I expected to be busy, but not that busy! We ran out of basically everything, had a line down 22nd St., and Alec and I were hustling like we never hustled before! In hindsight, I should have had the entire Prest crew there working. It was a record breaking day for Prest at that location; we did just shy of $900 in sales! It made me feel so loved as a business owner to have a last day like that and to see all of your faces, even if it was briefly. A special thanks to our two awesome customers who brought us bags of ice on the fly since we ran out; they saved our butts!

So, what’s next? As you may know already, my wife and I are moving to Salt Lake City in two weeks. I have been trying to sell Prest for a while now to keep it in Tucson, and have been very close to selling it. I’ve even had 2 different parties write me letters of intent to purchase, but both didn’t pull the trigger. So, I have decided I am going to sell the assets only of Prest, and keep the company for myself to possibly start again in the future. I am selling the Prest trailer (which was used as the Prest Drive Thru), all of the equipment, and inventory. This sale will not include the Prest name, LLC, or training. This is a “turn key” coffee trailer for sale. It is also up to the local Health Department standards for serving food, if that is desired. I’m asking $55,000 for everything. I do offer consulting services/training for $80/hour if desired, too. I can email anyone interested a full list of all the equipment that is included with sale. Please pass this along to anyone who may be interested. Thank you all so much for your years of support, It has been a great 7 years in business serving Tucson. I’ll miss all you great people! -Kyle 520-878-7191

Tomorrow, Saturday 8/28, is our last day serving at 22nd st. & Tucson Blvd. We have had a lot of people interested in purchasing Prest, but nothing is set in stone yet. So, at this point, Prest could be staying in Tucson (if we sell), or could be moving up to Salt Lake City (if we don't sell, which is where my wife & I are moving in October). We will be keeping everyone updated on social media. Hope to see you all tomorrow! -Kyle

This punch card lived its best life before it was redeemed for a free coffee.

Throwback Thursday to the OG Prest Cart. Our first couple years in business we sold french press coffee & fresh squeezed juice at lots of community events around Tucson. This photo was taken at the Spring 2015 Cyclovia.

Thank you for the kind review! Reviews like these help us reach new customers!
