A mere forty days ago, Harrison Knowles decided to quit his corporate job and start his mobile coffee business– MANIFEST Coffee + Community. Based in Knowles’ own neighborhood of East Norwalk, MANIFEST focuses on developing relationships with customers and creating a welcoming environment where everyone can express themselves freely over the highest quality of beverages.
In addition to the focus on community, Knowles ensures his customers get the highest possible quality beverages, as he personally sourced his vendors from the New York Coffee Fest. MANIFEST uses Ilse coffee which is based in North Canaan Connecticut, as well as Ghost Town Oats oat milk, and Transcendence coffee syrups which are formulated with only three ingredients and all natural flavors.
