Global Coffee Resources (GCR) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Taylor’s University in 2018 to form a strategic partnership in research and innovation, education and training.

As a strategic partner, GCR commits to providing curriculum input and expertise into Taylor’s coffee courses, conducting accreditation for both lecturers and students to become certified barista, co-organising both internal and external hospitality and culinary coffee based competitions, including assisting and coaching Taylor’s students in coffee competitions.

Executive Dean for Taylor’s Faculty of Hospitality, Food & Leisure Management Dr. Neethiahnanthan Ari Ragavan said, “this is a strategic partnership and the collaboration is especially meant for students to learn more about coffee, a rapidly growing industry where 2.25 billion cups of coffee a day are consumed. It is an industry that provides an amazing business opportunity to our students. I look forward to a successful collaboration with Global Coffee Resources.”

Global Coffee Resources (GCR) won the 100 Fast Moving Companies Award for Small to Medium Enterprise Award in 2019, featured at SME 100 Awards Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. Our teams’ hardwork and persistence was finally recognised after seven years serving the beverage industry.

From a humble beginning at Ara Damansara, GCR was a coffee roaster and distributes limited products to our customers. We learnt and understood the importance of providing a holistic solution in any given situation for the beverage service industry hence today; we have become a mature company that caters to the HoReCa industry. From coffee equipment, to providing after sales support, our team is professionally trained and is ready to assist this growing market.

“I always believe that if you want to go fast, you go alone, but if you want to go far, you go with your team. Together, a team will achieve greater success. With this, I would like to thank each and everyone in GCR for making this a great success for us all. We will move mountains in the near future” said Jasen Lee, Managing Director of GCR.
