Josh Taylor

Owner of Project One
Josh Taylor is the owner of Project One and a coffee professional with five years of industry experience. Eighteen months ago, at 21 years old, Josh committed to his lifelong dream of opening a cafe. He did this without investors or corporate backing, relying instead on personal savings, support from family and friends, and a strong determination to succeed. Driven by a passion for both coffee and people, Josh set out to create a space that locals could call their regular spot. His business philosophy is simple: great coffee, every time, every day - built on consistency, efficiency, and well-trained teams. At MICE, Josh shares his journey of turning a passion for coffee into a sustainable and fulfilling career.
