About
Cafe2U launched in 2005 and has been growing ever since. Cafe2U was the first mobile cafe franchise to take quality espresso coffee and hot drinks direct to its customers - truly a mobile cafe service or, as the name explains, a Cafe2U!
Cafe2U has over 180 franchises worldwide.
Home-based (no lease)
- Immediate ramp-up (income guarantee for 2 week launch)
- No employees
- Low Overhead
- Fixed royalties
Cafe2U is a successful franchise business with a simple, proven business model, developed with its franchisees in mind. Our successful launches have proved that the mobile coffee market is strong and still able to grow despite the difficult economic times.
We are not restricted by the high overheads of a fixed cafe and can take our business to the customers, making it a very resilient business model. You have the freedom to fit the business around your lifestyle and you do not require prior hospitality or coffee experience; all you need to bring are your enthusiasm, determination and of course your smile!
Building, launching and running a new business is not straightforward and there are many potential pitfalls which Cafe2U helps its franchisees navigate. This guarantees that our franchisees are much more prepared for running their own business than an independent business owner. Our tried and tested methods, together with your own dedicated franchise launch coach, ensure that your business gets off to the best possible start.
