Jamaica Blue has an exciting new incentive to encourage would-be entrepreneurs to join its world-class coffee brand.
The recently awarded 5-star business is targeting passionate individuals committed to developing their business to sign up to new Jamaica Blue locations.
Franchise buyers who sign up to a specific site, and pay their deposit by 31 December 2023, will receive 1000kg of coffee beans worth $32,000, as a complimentary addition to their new store.
Rich Goodman, CEO of Jamaica Blue’s parent company Foodco, says the business is especially focused on finding and training franchise partners who love working in their franchised business.
“We are highly focused on setting up our franchised partners for success.
“We know we’ve got a great product and a good template for the business. Everyone at Jamaica Blue is exceptionally proud of the business.”
The independently evaluated 5-star rating as a high performing franchise business has thrilled the team.
“The 5-stars is great recognition for our Foodco team and franchisees’ hard work and striving for continuous improvement. We are extremely proud of that,” says Rich.
With a highly-rated, well established franchise already a great business option, this new special offer is an extra bonus for new franchisees, he says.
Jamaica Blue’s brilliant franchisee coffee offer
Franchisees can leverage additional espresso machines and auto-frothers and offer grab-and-go items to deliver an accelerated service.
Rich reveals baristas can complete a coffee order in one minute which is crucial when speed of delivery is crucial.
“Coffee for us is significant volume and the predominant reason why franchisees start their business with us,” Rich says.
Amazing coffee in a relaxing setting is key to the brand’s success.
“Jamaica Blue provides a cafe sanctuary supported by great coffee, great food, consistent and reliable service, delivered with a twist,” he says.
“This offer means customers who are out in the market looking for a new business model, have a really compelling choice,” he says.
However, Rich points out there is a deadline for interested franchise buyers to snap up this one-off offer.
“This really is for a limited time only. We’re not continuing with this offer next year.”
Keen franchise applicants have plenty of location choices. There are 110 sites in metro and regional stores available, and locations in hospitals and airports coming up.
Rich says Jamaica Blue is focused on finding the right fit for the franchisee, ideally a location close to home to suit the predominantly family businesses.
Jamaica Blue is also expanding its footprint with hospital locations.
Rich says, “We are receiving glowing reviews from the hospital operators for our level of team’s attention, our support for franchisees, and the product assortments.”
Jamaica Blue coffee drives success
He says the external validation is echoed internally, with franchisees appreciative of the frequency of in-store visits by Foodco’s operational managers.
“We will be opening more locations, and recently acquired our second airport site which will launch early in 2024.
“It’s an exciting first to market concept that will refresh the offer in airports,” says Rich.
These high traffic locations demand speedy service, so the high velocity cafe model is an excellent new solution.
