About nosh n coffee
noshncoffee represents the next generation coffee shop and provides a formula that allows our brand to be differentiated from the rest of the competition. At noshncoffee we feel this differentiation is fundamental to success in a competitive retail environment. Importantly, we still look like a coffee shop, but that is where the similarity ends. It is our food that sets us apart with a strong emphasis on quality, which can only be achieved by preparation of product in house. This allows us to offer quality, value with flexibility to cater for local needs. Although our main focus is on sandwiches, our ever-expanding range includes cakes, soup, fresh juices and smoothies. We also offer healthy and gluten free options. And we’re ethical too? our coffee is all Fair-trade. As a result of this uniqueness in the market a noshncoffee franchise is an exciting fast moving business which offers an excellent opportunity for high rewards.

nosh n coffee franchise options
Through experience, noshncoffee recognise that opportunities for franchisees will come in all shapes and sizes. We have developed three concepts that reflect different locations and levels of financial investment.

Cafe
Our standard high street offering, the noshncoffee Cafe operates as a self-contained unit, requiring from 800-2,000 square feet. Perfect for the high street, shopping centres and commercial areas, this allows the franchise to operate as both a sit in and take out coffee shop, with a full range of coffee, hot and cold drinks, freshly prepared food, and subject to licence, wines and premium beers.

Express
For food and drink on the move, in locations such as food courts, leisure venues, stations and airports, we have the noshncoffee Express. Requiring a minimum of 300 square feet, an Express franchise can offer the full noshncoffee range to consumers on a take away basis.

Kiosk
Where space is at a real premium, for example as a concession within retail locations, the noshncoffee Kiosk is ideally suited. Primarily drinks led, the Kiosk can be sited in as little as 150 square feet, and be operated by a staff of two people.

Our aim is to be flexible, offering our franchisees the solution that works best for them. With our range of outlets, we can help franchisees develop a profitable business, whatever the location.
  • Tailor-made solutions for different locations
  • Differing investment levels
  • Flexible to cope with most situations

Support for franchisees
As a noshncoffee franchisee you will benefit from the support of a commited and highly experienced management team. They will give you support in four key areas:

Property
  • When you have decided to go ahead, one of our management team will visit your area and with you decide on the most appropriate location for your store
  • When a suitable property has been identified, noshncoffee takes the lease on the property, and then subleases the store out to you the franchise partner
  • We operate in this way because of the reluctance of landlords to grant leases to franchises who have had no previous retail business experience. It also demonstrates our faith in the potential viability of the location and in you the franchise partner, with us sharing the risk
Training
  • We believe that training is absolutely critical to the success of a franchise
  • We have developed an extensive training programme for new franchises that enables them to open for business with confidence
  • We offer ongoing refresher courses and will also train new members of your staff when they join your business
Opening for business
  • Once the property for your store has been identified and agreed, our team work with you to prepare for a successful opening
  • They are able to give advice on all aspects of your new store, including recruitment, promotion, training etc, and will stay with you until the store is open and trading successfully
  • The team are then available on an ongoing basis to discuss with you any problems or opportunities that may arise in ongoing trading
Marketing and promotion
  • We support all franchisees with marketing materials to help them promote their store within their local area. In certain instances we will also tailor local activity specifically for your store
  • You will also benefit from the increasing awareness of the noshncoffee brand through our national PR and promotional campaigns
In any franchise business support to franchisees is critical; at noshncoffee we believe that regular communication with our franchise partners is the only way of ensuring our joint success. To achieve this we hold regular franchisee meetings, head office visits and conferences and seminars. We also support you extensively on both commercial and management issues to help you develop your business in partnership with us.
