John and Maria launched their franchise in South Lanarkshire 6 weeks before the coronavirus pandemic hit the nation. Amid extraordinarily testing times, they have enjoyed some real success, mainly through home deliveries during the peak of lockdown, and now through the more traditional daily workplace visits.

Overall they have produced some of the best figures for the year to date within our network.

Having had to reluctantly turn work away over the last few months, they decided to expand, and have now launched a second franchise, within just 6 months of their first one, and are hoping to add more to their growing fleet later in the year.

As a new Franchise Partner, they adapted quickly by blending their regular coffee stops with the new home delivery service. Having worked tirelessly over the last few months they are now reaping their rewards with a second coffee van.

John told us “It has been a challenging few months and we had to put in a lot of hours of hard work. Our home deliveries exploded thanks to the exposure we had on social media via Facebook and Instagram. We started off with around 60 followers and have now got a following of over 1400, and have had a great response from the community as a whole”.

John and Maria can now be seen trading with their second van in North Lanarkshire bringing awesome coffee to business parks & industrial estates, and of course bringing the café experience to people’s front-rooms with their home delivery service.

Elsewhere within our franchise network, Mike in Milton Keynes has now added a 4th van to his growing fleet while Yousif in Watford South has launched 2 more vans, one in Bentcross and the other in Highgate.
