Zarraffa’s Coffee franchises look to expand North with new regional locations

With new opportunities open in the northern regions of Queensland, the Zarraffa's Coffee franchises chain is looking for the right franchisees to open their own businesses.

There are currently opportunities for coffee franchises in Townsville, Mackay, Emerald, Warwick, Gladstone and Cairns.

“We view any franchise partnership just like a marriage so we look for people interested in creating a profitable relationship by using the methodology and training that we have honed over the past 13 years in business”, says CEO Kenton Campbell.

The company is currently enjoying a growth phase, having opened 16 new coffee franchises in the past 2 years. With Zarraffa’s 43rd franchise now open, Kenton says that they are on target to open their 50th store next year.

“But we won’t sacrifice smart business along the way,” he adds. “Our plan is to source the right locations and match these with suitable franchisees.”

With coffee a luxury that consumers have been unwilling to forego during the recent financial crisis, the Zarraffa’s Coffee franchise model has consistently reported strong growth, with current figures at 15% for in store and 22% for group growth.

When considering the trajectory of the company, Kenton believes it’s the strength of the product that underpins everything.

“We maintain consistency across all our stores by providing the very best coffee from our own roastery on a weekly basis to our stores. We know our business and take very seriously our promise to create an individually perfect cup of coffee - every time,” he says.

Kenton encourages franchisees looking to join the growing ranks of coffee franchises under the Zarraffa’s Coffee banner to expect to be part of a dynamic, rapidly growing business, as well as being part of an established brand that has recognition Australia wide.
