The Mod Bar allows for players and staff to enjoying making their own coffee using La Marzocco's world class machinery - helping create a 'campfire experience' and providing a pure sense of community.

"The Mod Bar is epic. Every morning we come in as a playing group and it has brought a real sense of community for us. It's a bit different to what we have had in the past, these new facilities have been amazing, and to use them so frequently and easily has been incredible.

"It's been a real benefactor for us this pre-season, and not just within the playing group but amongst the AFL and AFLW players, and even staff, such as those in marketing in media, which has been great.

"We're incredibly excited about our partnership with La Marzocco. They are an amazing organisation, and it's been almost 100 years since they first started producing world-class coffee machines, and we're excited to have them as the coffee machine partner of the Sydney Swans.

"Eight years ago I was walking along Lexington Avenue in Manhattan, and came across a coffee machine very similar to the Mod Bar - I was immediately intrigued, and thought if I was to ever be involved in a cafe, or coffee machine deployment, that's what I would love to have. What delighted me was knowing that La Marzocco are the sole importer of the Mod Bar product. What we were looking for at Sydney Swans HQ, is something that can help deliver a campfire experience. Barry Moore and the team at La Marzocco have been able to do that.

Central to our Sydney Swans HQ and Community Centre is our campfire, and core to that is the amazing Mod Bar machines that La Marzocco have provided for us. Every single day we have athletes, staff, and volunteers coming to our club and enjoying the incredible experience that La Marzocco and the Mod Bar bring for us.

La Marzocco is incredibly proud to partner with the Sydney Swans and be part of their amazing new HQ at the Royal Hall of Industries by using our Mod Bar, which we believe aligns perfectly with the cultural change that they're looking to drive in this amazing organisation.

La Marzocco is excited to see and hear the part that a great cup of coffee plays in bringing people together. Coffee in Australia is driven by community - it happens in suburbs, cafes, and it should happen in the workplace. Bringing everyone in the organisation together, and not just the elite.
