Top 10 Coffee Franchises

Coffee is one of the world’s most important and beloved commodities. Coffee makers like Keurig are popular, but coffee franchises like Dunkin’ see over two billion cups of coffee annually, so the demand for coffee franchises can attract many investors. Additionally, owning a coffee franchise offers scalability and is often easier and less expensive to open in comparison to other food franchises.
A way for coffee franchise owners to increase sales and foot traffic is to offer customers non-coffee options, such as iced drinks, frozen drinks, teas, juice, light meals, and pastries. Coffee franchises offer an opportunity to go out to a local coffee shop instead of using your at-home coffee maker. If you are interested in connecting with your community and want to give them a place to enjoy coffee, owning a coffee franchise could be for you.
