1.12.22 PLAN AHEAD FOR 2022 & BEYOND!
Forecasters are already predicting a bumpy year for 2022 with Inflation and now due to the Omicron variant there is talk of factories in China and elsewhere perhaps closing their doors for weeks if not months this winter and spring. So we are expecting shortages starting in April through at least June. Also shipping by sea rates are further climbing which may have an impact on inflation. So plan ahead now by stocking up on your equipment and supply needs. We currently have most all size roasters in stock and more on the way to care for your needs.
COVID UPDATE: SCHEDULING VISITS TO OUR FACILITY:
12.22.21 Unfortunately Arizona as well as many states in the country are experiencing another surge of Covid 19. While this has not slowed down our work here in Arizona it is expected to slow down delivery times at ports in California. Also any that wish to schedule an appointment to see any of our equipment in factory will be required to abide by safety guidelines and sign a COVID release form. Plus we require you set an appointment at least 2 weeks in advance for equipment demos. Email INFO@BCROASTERS.COM if you wish to Schedule an appointment.
To schedule a visit email INFO@BCROASTERS.COM at least 2 weeks before you plan to visit. We require all visitors to be vaccinated & continue to wear a mask and do social distancing. COVID and its variants are still a threat to the USA and we require all to sign a COVID Release before a visit is scheduled.
SHIPPING & PARTS DURING COVID:
12.22.21: WorldWide in almost every sector of production there are parts shortages that began early in 2020 and are expected to continue well into 2022. Therefore custom order of equipment not in stock may expect extra delays of 6-8 weeks added to standard build times of Roasters and some other products. We suggest if you must custom order a special color roaster you plan well ahead. But we are working to keep a good supply of BLACK BODY roasters in stock or only 30-45 days out. In regard to parts orders we only sell parts to our customers that have purchased equipment or our brand models from us. And due to the parts shortage we are limiting parts orders only to what a companies needs and some parts to stock for general maintenance such as bearings, igniters, solenoids, & some motors. Email TECH@BUCKEYECOFFEE.COM or PARTS@BUCKEYECOFFEE.COM for more details.
SHIPPING:
Many of the shipping companies are still running behind on deliveries and as of 12.2021. FEDEX has added surcharges to all shipping (up to $30 surcharges for express shipping on each package) So plan ahead and order well in advance any parts or items you will need. We will not be shipping any parts EXPRESS or overnight until these surcharges are removed. Further there has become a world wide shortage of various parts used in the manufacturing of equipment. This has effected the production of Coffee equipment as well. Therefore there will be extra delays in custom ordered equipment. All in stock equipment can be shipped without delays.
