We understand that choosing the right franchise takes careful consideration. Not only must you narrow down your niche, but it’s also important to work with a brand that shares your values and goals.
With that being said, here’s a bit more about us and what you can expect from investing in an Esquires coffee franchise!
Who are We?
Esquires Coffee is a fast-growing, globally recognised coffee franchise with stores in the UK, Ireland, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Indonesia, Jordan and Pakistan.
Ethical business practices, sustainability, community and passion have long been at the core of our brand identity, remaining a driving factor in everything we do.
Esquires is currently enjoying rapid growth in several key territories and is seeking like-minded franchise partners for both single and multi-store franchise opportunities. Could you be one of them?
What Makes Esquires Special?
There are more potential franchise opportunities in the UK than ever, so why work with us?
We’re dedicated to building strong partnerships with our franchisees, using our decades of market expertise to propel them to the top and keep them there. Our franchise partners cite a few factors that make us stand out from the crowd.
A Sustainable & Ethical Focus
This is at the heart of everything we do. Since the very beginnings of the brand, Esquires has prioritised ethical and sustainable practices. This means that all of our coffee is 100% organic and Fairtrade. Esquires menus also include ethically-sourced tea and locally-sourced ingredients.
Not only does this ethos align with growing market trends of the conscious consumer, but it also helps put coffee farming communities and their environments first. By working closely with farming co-operatives, we can help support the well-being of the farmers who have historically been overworked and undercompensated.
The continued promotion of ethical and sustainable farming approaches is a step in the right direction for the future of the coffee industry, ensuring generations to come can benefit from the world of coffee from bean to cup. We understand that we have a dual responsibility to both the farmers who produce the coffee we serve and our loyal customers who value a great, traceable story behind their brew. This genuine dedication to our core values is part of the reason we’ve been able to build a successful franchise brand.
Community-Led Stores
Another reason Esquires stands out is the unique atmosphere in each of our stores. Each one has an independent feel – warm and comfortable and part of the local community. With armchairs, tables and plenty of sockets, our stores are designed for people to work, meet or relax in a welcoming space that feels like their own.
Every Esquires store is independently owned, which gives each one its own personality and connection to the area it serves. While every location carries the Esquires identity, the people behind each store and the community around it make them all a little different.
A Strong Market Position
As a globally recognised brand firmly positioned in the third wave of coffee culture, Esquires maintains a strong market position, putting new franchisees in a great place to benefit from a solid brand reputation.
With a unique focus on organic and Fairtrade food and drink, Esquires attracts the growing market of conscious coffee consumers and those looking for a more authentic coffee shop experience.
As the Esquires’ name continues to secure a solid reputation for great-tasting coffee and ethical practices, we’re perfectly primed to develop a range of new stores across the country, provided that the right franchise partners are by our side.
Proven Business Model
One of the primary benefits of investing in a franchise rather than going it alone is that you get instant access to a proven business model. We know what works and show franchisees how to take this expertise and put it into practice.
Our carefully developed, award-winning systems are integrated into each store, providing consistent operational and management systems that enable franchisees to maintain peak performance.
The result? An efficient, profitable business that is set up to thrive from the very start.
Franchise Support
Going hand in hand with this is the support each of our franchisees receives throughout their journey. Our industry experience and decades of work with different franchise partners have allowed us to develop a robust system of support and ongoing training.
When you become an Esquires franchise partner, our experienced team will equip you with all the skills and knowledge you need to confidently run a successful franchise.
Our team will be on hand to support you with everything from site selection and store design to menus, operations and marketing.
Opportunities For Growth
If you have experience with franchising or distinguish yourself with a particularly successful single-store Esquires franchise, there are ample opportunities to grow.
Our multi-store franchise agreements are ideal for franchise partners who want to continue building on their success and expand their reach. Opening more than one Esquires coffee shop is a great way to multiply revenue streams and uncover new opportunities while applying what you already know.
