Draft:Pact Coffee

  • Comment: Following clean-up, this draft is clearly no longer in G11 territory and the rejection should now be removed. Curbon7 (talk) 20:29, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Repeatedly resubmitted without addressing issues with conflict of interest. -Samoht27 (talk) 16:18, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Contributor(s) have not addressed WP:COI. Greenman (talk) 08:52, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Sourcing appears to be routine business coverage, interviews, press releases, and possibly sponsored content. What we need to see are three instances of significant coverage in independent reliable sources, preferably two of which are from outside the company's local area and outside of industry-niche publications.

  • Comment: Wikipedia cannot be used as a source (use WP:WIKILINKS to inter-link to other articles). At the moment the draft is written like an advertising brochure, which is prohibited on Wikipedia. You should only be paraphrasing what neutral secondary sources state about the topic, in a dry and factual manner. Qcne (talk) 15:47, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

Pact Coffee is a British coffee company that operates predominantly on a subscription business model.[1][2] to sell speciality coffee. Its roastery is in Haslemere, Surrey. Founded in 2012 as YourGrind, the company gradually switched from purely direct-to-consumer operations to a multichannel sales model that includes retail[3] and business-to-business. According to Elle in 2021, Pact had, in an earlier period, "dominated the coffee delivery space", and was one of the first coffee companies to operate in this way.[4]
