Hi, thanks for message. I deleted your article because
 * it did not provide adequate independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. You gave some references, but two were to your own sites, and the first three were all referencing the same fact, so just overkill. The EatOut.co.za probably isn't adequate anyway.
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.
 * it was all about what you are selling, little about the company itself other than locations. To show balane, you need hard verifiable facts such as the number of employees, turnover or profits.
 * Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: Truth Coffee is considered to be a key representative of [[third wave coffee... roasts all its coffee on site... full traceability... uniquely-costumed... all provided by expert baristas...
 *  modified by David himself first names doesn't suggest independent writing
 * I know it's won an award, but you lay it on with a trowel with cited by The Daily Telegraph newspaper as one of the thirteen best coffeeshop in the world, then the Telegraph quote, then award-winning and then a special "Honours" section to tell us yet again


 * Your edits indicate that you have an obvious conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject, and you must declare it. If you work directly or indirectly for the company, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly. Regardless, if you are paid directly or indirectly by the company you are writing about, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation.

If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.
 * I've seen worse, and I'm prepared to sandbox the deleted text for you to improve especially as  and  had started cleaning it up. However, you must rely to my COI comment first Jimfbleak (talk) 12:37, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
