In this episode of "In The Moment" sponsored by Citi, Tim Stenovec sits down with the Founder and CEO of Gregorys Coffee Gregory Zamfotis. After growing up in the food industry, Zamfotis decided to turn the typical coffee shop on its head and inspire a new generation of coffee-lovers.
Zamfotis talks about why New York City is the inspiration behind Gregorys Coffee. He was born and raised in the Big Apple so a lot of his heritage and background is engrained in the decor and atmosphere of his coffee shops. He also talks about brewing up a good culture with Gregorys Coffee employees. Growing a successful company is most important to Zamfortis and he says it starts with the happiness of his employees.
Plus, when did Zamfortis see his vision come together? He says it was when they opened one of the early shops and had a line down the block that he realized he has something successful on his hands.
The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down the agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. Russell Vought is the newly installed director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought directed the CFPB in a Saturday night email to stop work on proposed rules, to suspend the effective dates on any rules that were finalized but not yet effective, and to stop investigative work and not begin any new investigations. The agency has been a target of conservatives since President Barack Obama created it following the 2007-2008 financial crisis.
