£3k turnover GUARANTEED in your first 2 weeks or we pay the difference

What do you feel when you think about starting your own business? Excitement? Optimism? Worry?

C2U-PR-Image-Dec-25.jpg

Probably a mix of all three! Even when you’re looking at being part of something bigger, like you would with a Cafe2U franchise, making that leap can feel pretty daunting! Of all the questions and concerns people have, the biggest worry I hear time and again is “What if I don’t start earning quickly enough?”

It’s fair enough. You’re taking a chance by stepping into something brand new, but you’ve still got responsibilities, bills, maybe even a family depending on you. We understand, because many of us have been exactly where you are now.

Which is why we’ve brewed up something really special to help you move forward with confidence.

A £3,000 Launch Guarantee!

Enjoy the perfect start to your new business with a minimum of £3,000 turnover in your first two weeks of trading. If you don’t make that much, we’ll pay the difference out of our own pockets.

After those 2 weeks? You’ll have no problem making at least that, just like the dozens of other mobile café owners who have joined the Cafe2U franchise. We’re that confident, because:

With a Cafe2U franchise, your success is never left to chance

We’ve proven time and time again that if you follow our business model, you will succeed, but you’ll never be going it alone. Our expert franchise support team will be with you from day one to help you reach - and smash - that £3k target, with:

  • Comprehensive training - Learn everything from coffee craft to route management and customer service.
  • Proven launch plan - We’ll help you establish your route, build your customer base, and maximise sales from your first day.
  • Marketing support - From local promotion to digital marketing, we help create awareness and footfall fast.
  • Ongoing guidance - Daily coaching during your launch period to ensure your results stay on track.

Not to mention 2 decades of experience, a brand customers already love, and some seriously good coffee!

That's not all of course - there's still time to get in on our special offer of your first 2000 coffees completely free! However, you'll need to move fast...the offer closes 31st December!
