Lasaters Coffee & Tea Franchise

Coffee & Tea shop

If you'd like to start your own business, but simply do not have the experience or know-how to operate a successful operation, Lasaters Corporation may be able to help you open your own Lasaters Coffee & Tea Franchise.

We manufacture many of our own high-quality products which ensures incredible quality control.

We custom-roast our own coffees. We develop relationships with single-origin coffee growers in different regions in various countries.
Our Franchise business owners do not get coffee that's been sitting on the shelf for weeks or months (or even years, like some of our national competitors). Our Franchise business owners order coffee - we roast it within 24 hours!

Lasaters Corporation negotiates on behalf of their Franchise business owners. Many coffeehouse operators who are just getting started in the coffee industry experience the difficulties that surround opening and running a coffeehouse. From the freight costs, to the product research, there is a multitude of roads that can be taken. How do you negotiate better pricing than what your local distributor or wholesaler offers? How do you find out which product is more cost effective? Which road do you take? This is another benefit of owning a Lasaters Coffee & Tea Franchise! Our Franchise business owners need not negotiate with other vendors to try to minimize their costs - that is already done for you!

What does it take to start a Lasaters Coffee & Tea Franchise? First, you will need to submit some basic information to verify you're ready to start franchising. Next, if you are approved, we will contact you for a meeting. The process is fairly quick and you may be on your way to opening your new Lasaters Coffee & Tea store within a matter of weeks!
