The perfect premises could already be out there just waiting for you…
In the last couple of months, the 92 Degrees franchise has continued to expand into new locations, including a very exciting new outlet in Glasgow’s busy Queen Street Station. It’s another great example of a modern coffee shop done right, but this particular new addition is a location with a difference.
Unlike many of the larger coffee shops in the chain, this one is a small kiosk coming in at just 30 sq ft – and it’s proving to be one of their most successful and profitable outlets yet!
The Glasgow kiosk cost just £40k to set-up, and is already enjoying revenues of between £25k and £40k a month. Not only does a format like this mean lower overheads and set-up costs, but also better profit margins. In this case, around 25%!
Of course, it doesn’t have tables and chairs for customers to sit at, but its prime footfall location means it offers exactly what people need, just when they need it. It’s a very interesting example of just what can be achieved with the right business model, and a great location.
