ABOUT THE GUEST SPEAKER

Craig Charity is a young entrepreneur from the Upper Highway with a passion for great coffee, good people, and has taken the coffee scene by storm. He had a dream of pursuing a career in coffee, and put the wheels into motion in 2012 by beginning to roast small batches of coffee in his garage with the help of Thulani Fanie Myeza, who is now a full time Roaster at Lineage Coffee. From two men with a 2.5kg Roaster in a garage, Lineage has grown into a thriving roastery that produces and distributes over a ton of coffee a month to different clients all over Africa, from hotels to corporates.

Lineage continued to evolve as it branched out into two bustling cafes, with a third opening soon in the midlands. Lineage also has its own busy technical department which installs, repairs and services machines throughout the province.

Lineage has become a household name that has not only introduced speciality coffee into the Upper Highway area but has created an incredible coffee culture and community. Their cafes and Baristas are like no other, giving you a truly unique and exceptional coffee experience
