Two childhood friends have launched a drinks business together celebrating their Caribbean heritage.
Cool Rummings owners: Cheyenne Dunkley and Conor Johns
The pair, who hail from Wolverhampton, met in school and have remained close friends ever since, always supporting one another. Speaking about the process on where the idea came from and how they plan to make the drink a household name across the country, CJ said:"Essentially we are two friends that met in Year Seven at Heath Park school, always kept in contact and always supported one another, so we decided to work on the idea of launching our own drink."There is currently a gap in the market for a rum punch drink and so we want to fill that gap. It's a Caribbean drink which comes from our background.
"It has been a work in progress since coming up with the idea, and we faced barriers in getting a manufacturer, but after getting our drinks license, we launched in December 2022 and we're now selling in a range of shops across Wolverhampton."We have received a lot of support from friends and family, but most importantly, the feedback we are getting is that people have been getting in contact to tell us that they love the drinks.
