Best Coffee Business Franchises

After researching coffee franchise opportunities for ourselves, we have found many exceptional coffee franchise opportunities currently or soon-to-be available. Some of these have already actually started nipping at Starbucks’ heels in some areas, so-to-speak and may continue to do so in the future! This section lists many of these up-and-coming and currently exceptional coffee franchises.
In some areas in the U.S., there is a franchise that has really been giving Starbucks a “run for their money” and is planning to expand across the country and more!
Dunkin Donuts is one of those companies giving Starbucks quite a bit of competition and they only plan to get stronger in the future.
Dunkin Donuts offers their franchise owners a well-established name as well as potential franchise partnerships rather than simply licensing their brand name to some establishments that sell their coffee.
Caribou Coffee Company is another unique coffee franchise, however, they do have several requirements including having personal ties with the community you plan to open a Caribou franchise in as well as restaurant experience in your area, as well. Caribou also limit’s the number of franchises one is allowed to open. Currently the highest is around ten stores.
Some other exceptional coffee franchise opportunities include Sonoma Coffee Café, Coffee Heaven, Coffee Time, Gourmet Cup, Kelly’s Coffee & Fudge, Java Kai, The Coffee Beanery, Steaming Joe’s, Gloria Jean’s, Café A La Carte, Jo to Go drive thru, Bad Ass Coffee, Zizzo’s, Costa Coffee in addition to a couple of the fastest growing coffee franchises such as Maui Wowi and It’s a Grind.
Again, there are many coffee franchise opportunities available and many more than what we have just mentioned. However, we have found all of the previously mentioned coffee franchises worth looking into before most others.
In addition to coffee shop franchises, there are many smoothie as well as cookie/bakery franchises that sell quite a bit of coffee as well such as Cinnabon franchises, Nestle Café franchises, even Tropicana offers franchising opportunities as well.
Remember to use this section as a good start-off or continuation point in order to continue in your coffee franchise research before jumping into any one coffee franchise opportunity listed here.
We believe there are many great opportunities out there for coffee franchises and success all depends on how much a coffee shop franchise owner knows about the location and habits of their selected market(s) as Dunking Donuts has shown in some parts of the country, some coffee franchises can perform much better than that of the monster coffee establishments that already exist beside them.
