Scooter’s Coffee Expands Into Kennewick

Local Couple Signs Agreement to Open Washington State’s First Location

March 22, 2024 // Franchising.com // OMAHA, Neb. - Scooter’s Coffee, LLC, the Midwest-based drive-thru coffee franchise experiencing record-breaking growth, continues its expansion throughout the United States by bringing one of its world-class coffee kiosks to the southwest Washington town of Kennewick.

Co-owners Chris and Camilla Avery have raised and homeschooled all nine of their children with only one still at home. They are proud grandparents to 10 too! The couple owns a well-respected commercial construction company now but have seen their fair share of struggles. At one point not long ago, they moved into an RV with four of their kids to gain financial stability. “Our kids have seen us barely survive, our kids have learned perseverance, our kids will see us succeed.”

The family lives in a rural area, and there are no coffee shops near them, so they have decided to open one. “I liked Scooter’s Coffee because it’s not a big corporate model,” said Camilla. “It’s just good people making good coffee.”

Scooter’s Coffee, based in Omaha, Nebraska, specializes in espresso drinks, fruit smoothies, baked-from-scratch pastries and features its signature beverage, the Caramelicious®. The company also offers a wide selection for all taste profiles with its organic hot and iced teas, premium-grade brewed coffee, cold brew, breakfast items, and a kids’ menu.

According to the latest market trends compiled by the National Coffee Association, 63% of Americans drank coffee in the past day - more than any other beverage, including water. Those coffee drinkers each consume an average of 2.8 cups every day. Zippia Research reports that 60% of American coffee drinkers visit a coffee shop at least once a month.

Scooter’s Coffee’s proven 664 sq. ft. drive-thru-only kiosk model, combined with their fast, friendly service, allows customers to ‘scoot in’ on their way to work or school to buy their favorite beverage and get their day off to a great start.

Some of Chris and Camilla’s adult children will be involved in the business. “One of our son’s wives will manage the store, and another son will be the assistant manager,” said Camilla. “Hopefully, he will want to open his own Scooter’s Coffee one day.”

“Camilla and Chris Avery's decision to open a Scooter’s Coffee in Kennewick represents exactly the kind of passion and community focus we look for in our franchisees,” said Matt Sawicki, Vice President of Franchise Sales. “Their approach to integrating their family into the business reflects the core values of Scooter’s Coffee, making them ideal partners as we expand into Washington.”
