Why Open a Coffee Shop in Preston?

Located in the heart of Lancashire lies the city of Preston, a lively North West location that offers some excellent opportunities for developing a new coffee business.

The city itself has a population of around 150,000, and the proximity to accessible transport links makes it a hub for nearby towns, bringing in a steady stream of footfall ideal for local coffee stores.

Preston is also home to the University of Central Lancashire, which provides a strong student population who are always on the lookout for cool, cosy coffee spots to work and socialise – something you’ll be able to easily tap into.

The city’s increasing investment in infrastructure and its regeneration efforts make it a great upcoming place to build a new business. Local attractions like the Harris Museum, green spaces such as Avenham and Miller Park, the historic docks, and a bustling shopping scene also contribute to a vibrant atmosphere with people always on the go and in need of somewhere to relax and get their caffeine fix!

Preston’s strong sense of community, coupled with a growing economy and emerging coffee scene, allows for a supportive environment for new businesses, making it a prime location for a successful coffee franchise.
