Take time out for a ‘Rural Coffee’
Carla Lockhart MP • December 5, 2023
Upper Bann MP Carla Lockhart has expressed her best wishes to local entrepreneur Kerri Raferty from Waringstown, who has launched a new coffee cart called ‘Rural Coffee’.
Wishing Kerri well, the DUP MP said:
“So many people enjoy their coffee, and I know Kerri will be serving up first class coffee at her new coffee cart, trading under the name ‘Rural Coffee’.
Kerri has a real passion for good coffee and first class treats, and I know that she will put every energy into making this new venture a success.
It is always great to see women step forward into business and Kerri is certainly equipped to make ‘Rural Coffee’ a success.
Do keep an eye out for the cart, and remember it is also available for hire for a range of community events.”
