Be A Part of a Global Phenomenon - Coffee Franchises

Worldwide, over 2 billion cups of coffee are consumed every day and in terms of daily non-alcoholic beverage consumption, coffee is placed at number two, after water.

Coffee has woven itself into peoples lives and millions can't go without at least one cup, be it in the morning on the way to work, or in the office. There's no denying that coffee businesses are one of the biggest sectors globally. Have you thought about being a part of it? There are plenty of coffee shops for sale out there, but have you considered franchising?

Coffee Franchises - What Are They?

Owning a coffee franchise is just like owning your own business. You do in a way - you get to be your own boss, keep what you earn. But the difference is, with a coffee franchise, you're buying an established brand and being a part of a franchise network. Franchisees will buy the rights to trade as the coffee franchisor's brand name, and the coffee franchisee will use the franchisor's proven business model to run their own business. Trading under the brandname of a successful franchisor has many benefits over starting a business from scratch.

There will be an initial investment when buying a coffee franchise, but this will cover things like training and support, plus all of the materials and presumably, initial stock. Get in touch with a coffee franchise to learn what they offer.

Types of Coffee Franchises

For such a popular beverage globally, it should come as no surprise that the coffee franchise sector is also hugely diverse. Here are just some of the popular types of coffee franchises.

Coffee Shop Franchises

In most cases, you'll need a premises for a coffee shop franchise, but that's not always the case. Some franchisors might offer lower cost alternatives such as kiosks and coffee stands, but coffee food franchises that do require a premises and eat in facilities will be very much the same in terms of offering. One good example of a coffee shop franchise is Costa Coffee. As well as finding Costa on the highstreet, you're likely to find franchisees in theme parks and hospitals as well. This goes to show that despite location, having a well known brand name brings with it influence and reputation, just one of the many benefits of becoming a franchisee.

Mobile Coffee Franchises

If running a coffee shop premises or kiosk isn't for you, then you might be pleased to know there is an alternative - mobile coffee. Coffee vans, coffee bikes, these are all franchise opportunities.

Mobile coffee franchises will usually see you going to the customers, rather than customers coming to you. You'll be looking to get attendance to events, concerts, train stations etc, places where there will be lots of potential customers. Bringing the coffee to the customer rather than the other way round - what an ingenious idea.
