Franchise Opportunities in Blackpool

More and more entrepreneurs have found success with franchising over recent years. The ideal blend of being your own boss and receiving support from an established brand, the franchise business model provides a wealth of opportunities.

The coffee shop industry is especially well suited to this model as you can easily tap into an existing customer base, provide well-loved, consistent products and give yourself a head start in a notoriously competitive market.

If you’re currently looking for new opportunities in Blackpool or the surrounding areas, investing in a coffee shop franchise could be your perfect next step.

Why Open a Blackpool Coffee Shop?

The iconic seaside town of Blackpool, located on the Lancashire coast, is renowned for its lively atmosphere, iconic landmarks and year-round tourism – it’s a great spot for emerging businesses looking to make their mark.

Attractions like the Blackpool Pleasure Beach, Tower, Illuminations and beach draw countless visitors to the area every year, creating a consistent demand for leisure and hospitality services. The large local population of 140,000 also contributes to a steady customer base and plenty of opportunities to attract a community of regulars.

The bustling promenade, filled with tourists and locals enjoying the beach, amusements and shopping prospects, is a vibrant hotspot, providing high foot traffic. A coffee shop in Blackpool or the surrounding areas could cater to this constant flow of people on the go, offering a cosy space to relax and take a break from the crowds.

Additionally, Blackpool enjoys a varied calendar of events and festivals, including food and drinks festivals, speaking to an engaged community that are always on the lookout for new experiences. The combination of tourist appeal and local community makes Blackpool an excellent location for a coffee shop to find success.
