May 21, 2020 // Franchising.com // OMAHA, Neb. - Scooter’s Coffee, LLC, the Midwest-based drive-thru coffee franchise that is on track for another record-breaking year of growth, is growing its presence in Colorado to bring its world-class drive-thru coffee locations to Colorado Springs.
Scooter’s Coffee, based in Omaha, Nebraska, specializes in artisan espresso drinks, fruit smoothies, baked-from-scratch pastries and features its signature drink, the CarameliciousÒ. The company added depth to its profile last year with a new line of organic hot and iced teas, single-origin coffee and Cold Brew & Cream.
Americans love their coffee. The percentage of people in the U.S. who drink coffee daily is up to 64 percent in 2018, the highest since 2012. The use of drive-thru’s for coffee has slightly increased over the past five years. In 2019, 46 percent of people said they had purchased coffee using a drive-thru the day before. Scooter’s Coffee, with the Brand Promise of “Amazing People, Amazing Drinks… Amazingly Fast!®” is helping Americans meet that demand.
Scooter’s Coffee is extremely excited about expanding to more locations in the Colorado Springs area. Dustin Flansburg has signed a multi-unit agreement with Scooter’s Coffee.
Flansburg is very knowledgeable about the franchise business after growing up with parents who owned an Arby’s in Nebraska. Flansburg and his family are excited to make Scooter’s Coffee their own family business and to incorporate the core values Scooter’s Coffee embraces.
“I was very impressed with everything I saw while visiting headquarters in Omaha,” said Dustin Flansburg. “I am super excited to get started in the coffee business, and Scooter’s Coffee has a great product, delivered with speed, that everyone can really get behind.”
In line with its successful and robust grand opening strategy, Scooter’s Coffee recently opened five locations throughout Kansas and Missouri, opened the second location in the state of Arkansas, and is opening additional locations in markets such as Dallas, Texas, and Denver, Colorado. The company is quickly surpassing 250 locations in 14 states and has over 200 franchise commitments to build new stores.
