Omaha Couple Signs Multi-Unit Agreement with National Coffee Brand
OMAHA, Neb. – (March 2022) – Scooter’s Coffee, LLC, the Midwest-based drive-thru coffee franchise that is experiencing record-breaking growth, is continuing its effort to grow its presence throughout the United States by bringing its world-class drive-thru coffee locations to Conway, Benton, and Bryant Arkansas.
Scooter’s Coffee, based in Omaha, Nebraska, specializes in artisan espresso drinks, fruit smoothies, baked-from-scratch pastries and features its signature drink, the Caramelicious. The company also recently added depth to its profile with a line of organic hot and iced teas, single-origin coffee and Cold Brew & Cream.
The expansion into the suburbs of Little Rock is the result of a four-unit franchise agreement signed by Heather and Shawn LaMontia. “We’d just sold our business and were looking for our next adventure when the opportunity came to open up a Scooter’s Coffee,” said Heather. Being from Omaha, they were already fans of the company. “We have family in Arkansas so we are really excited to open our stores there. We plan on moving there in late May or early June.”
According to the latest market trends compiled by the National Coffee Association, 60 percent of Americans drank coffee in the past day. That’s more than reported drinking tea, juice, soda, or even tap water! And the number of people who reported buying coffee at a coffee shop or restaurant has risen 20% since January of 2021. The drive-thru coffee model, already popular in our fast-paced society, has boomed during the pandemic, giving customers a way to get a delicious beverage while staying socially distant. Scooter’s Coffee kiosks, with the Brand Promise of “Amazing People, Amazing Drinks… Amazingly Fast! ®” is helping Americans meet that demand.
“The Scooter’s Coffee culture and the importance they put on customer service is in line with what we believe,” said Heather. “And who doesn’t love a great cup of coffee?”
“Little Rock and the surrounding area are a great market for our brand,” said Kelly Crummer, Scooter’s Coffee Senior Director of Franchise Recruitment. “This addition will allow us to increase our brand’s presence and bring awareness to our great products and service.”
