Gold Coffee, a well-known restaurant chain, closed its central roasting plant without warning in June, and roasters in the northern central kitchen were also laid off in July, with two waves of layoffs and some outlets closed. In response to this, Gold Coffee said that in the first half of the year, it was decided to close down the baking line. More than 50 bakers were laid off. Taiwan's 71 stores will no longer sell bread, leaving only coffee and desserts. From next week, 21 stores will be closed in order to recall employees for re-education and training, and the reopening schedule has not yet been set.

Gold Coffee stressed that more than 50 roasters have been laid off in accordance with the law, and some of the products will strengthen fine coffee in the future. starting from next Monday, 21 stores in Taiwan have been suspended and recalled to receive education and training in fine coffee, and the timetable for the reopening has not yet been determined. The reason is that with the addition of boutique coffee products, the equipment in the store has to be redeployed, and we have to wait for a comprehensive evaluation after the break before we can have an exact schedule and see you again as soon as possible. Originally, the store staff supported other stores first.

In response to the announcement that Gold Coffee has laid off more than 50 roasters, the Taipei Municipal Bureau of Labor said that so far it has not received any notice of layoff or mass dismissal of Gold Coffee.

Miss Liu, a regular guest, said that as the company happens to be located near the store, she buys bread on the way to and from work. Modern people are used to drinking coffee with bread. It is a pity that there is no bread, and it is inconvenient to buy two things at a time. Miss Wu said frankly that she seldom eats bread, so not selling bread has no effect on her, and it is a good direction for her to strengthen boutique coffee in the future.

Netizens are very pessimistic about the future transformation of gold coffee. Some netizens sighed: "the gold mine was the pride of the people of Kaohsiung at that time, but it will only become history after all."I still miss the gold mine of the founder." the cake today is really not as delicious as it used to be. "when I heard that it was sold to Tsan Kun, I thought."
