What locations or territories is the Coffee-Bike franchise looking to operate in?

Coffee-Bike has an ambitious strategy globally, with a particular focus on becoming major players in the UK market. As a signal of intent, it has just launched a new bike at London’s Gatwick Airport which will be seen by up to 60,000 passengers each day. 

The mobility of the bike allows franchisees to trade within any region in the UK. It has franchisees operating in dense areas with high footfall such as Liverpool Street in London, whilst other franchisees perform equally well with loyal customers in less populated areas such as Chelmsford in Essex. Coffee-Bike knows the concept works in any region with pro-active and engaged franchisees.

Despite having Coffee-Bike stores in London and much of the UK, Scotland and Northern Ireland – no territory has reached its full potential, making this the perfect opportunity to join and become the dominant force in your region.

What are the franchise terms of agreement and renewal?

The initial four-year franchise term is available to be extended via another four-year rolling renewal without any further franchise fees.

Why is Coffee-Bike a good investment? 

Many people dream of owning their own café or small corner coffee shop. Often, however, this dream cannot be achieved due to a lack of capital. The Coffee-Bike franchise model enables you to operate your own mobile coffee shop on three wheels without fixed costs and large initial investments – the minimum investment starts at just £12,490 – far lower than other franchises.  

Many fixed coffee stores and even other mobile concepts require an initial investment of over £70,000. The advantage that Coffee-Bike offers over the traditional coffee industry is that demand can be met in unique locations, giving you entrepreneurial freedom. For example, during the COVID-19 outbreak, many fixed stores and business owners were unable to trade in locations such as office blocks. With its ability to be mobile, franchisees could make cups of coffee or hot chocolate and serve customers wherever there was demand, such as public parks to catch people on their daily walk.
