Narrow Way Cafe is one of the newest additions to Livernois Avenue in Detroit. But, this isn’t a podcast about coffee.
In today’s episode Sven Gustafson, touches on the cafe – but the real secret to success in Detroit is service to others.
And who knows service better than a man who’s both involved in business and the church?
That’s Jonathan Merritt, a talented man that’s part of both Narrow Way Cafe and is a pastor at Straight Gate Church.
Narrow Way has quite the journey to opening, including receiving a $45,000 grant from Motor City Match. But the place is built from the ground up to be part of the neighborhood – including having a good number of employees who live within walking distance.
He’s one of the people to watch in Metro Detroit. Although he’s gotten a lot done, this might be only the beginning for Merritt.
