A Proven Alternative to Coffee Shop Franchises

 Crimson Cup Coffee and Tea has helped hundreds of independent coffee shops get off to a successful start.  Since 1991, Crimson Cup has taught more than 250 independent coffeehouse owners across 28 states how to set up and operate a profitable coffee business.

Their comprehensive, hands-on training approach allows you, the franchisee, to hit the ground running when you open your doors for business, so you can minimize mistakes and become profitable quickly. Their handcrafted coffee plus their passion, equals a lucrative, growing community of successful independent coffee shops!

The Crimson Cup franchise opportunity offers the best of both worlds. They offer all the benefits of a franchise, without the franchise headaches and expenses. They are not a franchise, and that is a good thing. Instead of a cookie-cutter store design that each franchisee is required to imitate, Crimson Cup allows franchisees to create their own unique coffeehouse name, look and personality to reflect that person’s individuality.  And each franchise owner still gets to benefit from their 21 years of knowledge and experience in the coffeehouse business to teach you everything you need to know to be successful.

In addition to supplying awesome coffee, syrups, sauces and recipes for espresso-based drinks, Crimson Cup also provides guidance in:

  • Developing a business plan
  • Scouting a location and negotiating a lease or purchase
  • Name and Logo development
  • Arranging the coffee bar, menu and seating area for maximum efficiency
  • Creating a pour-over brew bar
  • Developing a menu
  • Choosing, installing and maintaining equipment
  • Marketing, including promotional signage for seasonal specials
  • Selecting and training staff
  • Operating efficiently and profitably
