Why invest in a Booskerdoo Franchise?

There’s plenty of demand in this growing category- 64% of adults drink coffee every day, leading to an industry that makes approximately $12+ billion in annual sales.

Better coffee wins. The demand for specialty grade coffee (coffee’s highest grade and best tasting) is growing, but with no chain actually selling 100% specialty grade. Starbucks blends low grade with specialty grade, hence it doesn’t taste very good.

Customers tend to prefer small business and are more loyal to them- They’re 30% more likely to be satisfied with a small business than a big business and are more likely to return.

Coffee drinkers are beginning to shy away from large coffee shops and are eager to support ones that are local and community based- 52% prefer shop locally, especially to support the small businesses in their community.

The coffee industry is doing better than ever. Specialty Coffee is growing, and mainstream “fast food” coffee (Dunkin, Starbucks) is also doing well, with Starbucks having just set record sales in 2020.
Booskerdoo bridges the gap between specialty coffee and mainstream, offering specialty quality coffee, roasted in front of the customer, but with a mainstream approachability.
