It's A Grind Coffee House® Franchise:

FASTEST-GROWING COFFEE FRANCHISE IN THE U.S.


"Hottest Business for 2007"



THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME

We have no doubt that that's where we are, and that's where you can be too! Specialty coffee is hot! The specialty coffee industry is undergoing its most rapid growth in history. America's love affair with specialty coffee has exploded into a $5 billion industry whose growth shows no sign of slowing down. With high quality specialty and espresso-based coffee drinks, a commitment to uncompromising quality, and a team of professionals committed to operational excellence, It's A Grind is well positioned to take advantage of this booming coffee culture.


It's A Grind Franchise Advantages

  • AN EXPERIENCED TEAM

    The difference at It's A Grind are the people. It's A Grind has assembled a team of professionals with decades of combined experience in franchising and the retail coffee business to assist in the development and operation of your store.

  • A COMPREHENSIVE BUSINESS SYSTEM

    It's A Grind offers a comprehensive business system for achieving financial success and independence. The development of the "It's A Grind System" has been a long and tedious task. The system has been modified and re-modified to produce one of the best retail specialty coffee franchises on the market.

  • EXTENSIVE TRAINING

    Since most of our franchisees are not familiar with the retail coffee business, we provide the training that builds the operational and managerial foundation for your business from the start. Prior to the opening of the store, all franchisees and their management employees must complete a two (2) week training program at the It's A Grind corporate headquarters in Long Beach, California. The program consists of both in-store and classroom instruction, and includes all information and training necessary to operate an It's A Grind franchise.

  • A WINNING DESIGN

    We have created an atmosphere that is inviting, comfortable, and personal. At It's A Grind, consumers are active: they read, study, play games, talk, write letters, and work. Outdoor seating and casual furniture groupings are incorporated to provide the customer with a variety of settings in which to enjoy our delicious coffee products.

  • A MENU WITH UNLIMITED APPEAL

    Our great specialty and espresso-based coffee drinks are central to the appeal of our menu. However, as an accompaniment to these items, is a carefully selected product line designed to appeal to a wide range of customers at all times of the day. Your store will offer bagels, muffins, scones, assorted bakery items, fruit smoothies, tea and tea based drinks.

A Bar without the Alcohol!

The media calls us the "Cheers" or "Friends" of the coffee industry. In addition to the morning rush crowd, our comfortable environment provides a daily meeting place for social, business, and family gatherings. We also cater to kids, and host weekend local entertainment, producing additional business most coffee houses ignore. It's A Grind franchisees upstage the corporate chains by personally supporting and sponsoring community activities, and providing the quality service and hospitality that comes with local ownership and onsite management.

Owner Advantages:

  • EASY-TO-OPERATE BEVERAGE BUSINESS
  • 77% OF AMERICANS NOW DRINK SPECIALTY COFFEE
  • IMPRESSIVE EARNINGS CLAIMS
  • FUN, ENJOYABLE ENVIRONMENT
  • FAMILY FRIENDLY
  • NO FOOD PREPARATION OR COOKING
