The right mix of the key ingredients makes Coffee Time an excellent franchise opportunity, but does not guarantee success. No ingredient is more important than you. Your leadership is the catalyst that puts it all together. While industry experience is an asset, owning a Coffee Time franchise requires no direct experience in the coffee shop business.
We are continually seeking enthusiastic, professional people who have an ability to relate well to both customers and employees. We make an evaluation of an individual’s personality, qualities and characteristics. We look for integrity, honesty, sincerity, initiative and tenacity, just to name a few.

An application can then be made to a chartered bank or other financial lending institution to finance (subject to their criteria) the balance of the purchase price.
