Ha. I know all that. We lived in Puerto Rico for five years a couple years back. No, local sales are not at all profitable. The wholesale price of coffee is fixed to benefit the big roasters - our plan is to roast it ourselves and sell retail online as a boutique brand serving the mainland. Our friends already do this, and do OK with it. The electricity is fine in Ponce (water can be a temporary issue there, too, but every house has a tank); when we do come to Adjuntas, we'll be building a solar house, ideally somewhere with its own spring water. No hurry. It's PR. :-)
