Could trend for coffee be your ticket to ride?

Sarah Stowe

We spend 40 or so years of our lives at work, slaving away for someone else’s gain, working so that other people can achieve their goals and their dreams; with little time left in a day to invest in ourselves. 
 
We wake up, go to work and come home. Then the next day we rinse and repeat. 
 
Besides from being an astronaut or a superhero did you ever dream about travelling from place to place, free to work and do as you please?
 
Coffee has grown to become a staple Australian beverage: when we wake up it’s one of the first things on our mind. We often don’t have the time to make our own coffees though, and that’s an issue for many working Australians who want their daily dose, (similarly) when and where they please.
 
Australia’s love for quality coffee and vibrant coffee culture is supported by the industry’s substantial revenue growth of 5.3% over the past five years to a revenue of $4.2bn.  Industry revenue is expected to grow by an annualised 2.5% over the five years from 2014/2015 to 2018/2019, according to IBISWorld figures.
 
At The Coffee Guy we’ve discovered the best way to meet the demands of Australians far and wide and it’s actually quite simple: we deliver great coffee to the community!  As our Franchise Partner, you choose your own territory with our guidance, which means you can work in an area that suits you.
 
The most exciting thing about being a part of The Coffee Guy team is that your work environment changes constantly. The Coffee Guy’s flexible work-life balance is refreshing and the best part about it is that you get to meet new people every day, make friends with your customers and most of all; you are your own boss. 
 
The Coffee Guy is a much loved brand of Retail Food Group which is the owner, developer and manager of the Donut King, Brumby’s Bakery, Michel’s Patisserie, Gloria Jean’s Coffees, Pizza Capers, Crust Gourmet Pizza Bar, It’s A Grind, Cafe2U, bb’s CafŽ and Esquires franchise systems. Which means The Coffee Guy is backed by a team of franchising experts and enjoys the efficiencies and buying power of a large multi-brand franchisor.  
 
Our expert team at The Coffee Guy offers prospective Franchise Partners the best opportunity to succeed in the coffee business. We will provide all of the training required, such as how to operate the coffee machine, education on the quality and nature of the beans, and we will spend the first two weeks with them in their van. We ensure they are comfortable running their business and will assist in starting to build a customer base.
 
The cost of buying into a franchise with The Coffee Guy is considerably lower than a ‘bricks and mortar’ business, which makes it easier for people to get started on their own.
