Supporting Topolinis Caffe during COVID-19

Current events regarding COVID-19 are unprecedented for our community, for the WAFL and the greater football community.

This is a very difficult time for everyone and it’s safe to say that this is one of the biggest challenge’s the football industry has faced in the modern era.  

In this new segment, we talk with Subiaco Football Club sponsors and discuss how each business has been affected by Coronavirus, and how Subi fans and members can support them during these times.

We caught up with Topolinis Caffe owner Jodie Jardine.
 

How long have you been a sponsor of Subiaco Football Club?

Topolinis has been sponsoring Subi for the past 11 years, 5 years just as little sponsors but the last 6 years as your catering/canteen and bigger sponsors.

How is your company coping with the COVID-19 Crisis?

We have had to close our dine-in restaurant but we are still going pick up and deliveries. We are also available on UberEats.

Are you still working and open for business?

Yes, Takeaways only

Have you to make any tough calls during this crisis?

We have had to make tough calls, we have had to let go of about 18 staff which we are devastated about. We are still employing a few chefs and casual staff as drivers, but we also have a lot of family working for free (we just have to feed them).

How can the Subi members and fans support you during this time?

If members could order takeaway through us, that would be great!
