It started in the cellar, not the showroom.
VIVA was founded by Jordan. Before any of this, he spent eight years as a drinks dispense engineer — installing and maintaining dispense equipment the length and breadth of the UK. City bars, restaurants, stadiums, festivals, mobile bars, Glastonbury — fitting systems, running installs, and getting called out when a bar couldn't pour and the night was on the line.
That's eight years of learning exactly what fails on site, why it fails, and how to build so it doesn't. So when he set up VIVA, the bars weren't picked off a catalogue — they were built by someone who'd spent a career fixing everyone else's.
He set up on his own and it's grown every year since. Same hands on the kit, just our name on the bar now.
