OMAHA, Neb. – (April 2023) – Scooter’s Coffee, LLC, the Midwest-based drive-thru coffee franchise experiencing record-breaking growth, continues its expansion throughout the U.S. by bringing its world-class drive-thru coffee kiosks to Dickson and Fairview, Tennessee.
The expansion into both towns which are about 45 minutes west of Nashville is the result of a two-unit franchise agreement signed by husband and wife team, John and Jennifer Schmitt. “I was a stay-at-home dad who couldn’t sit still, so I’d start businesses, build them up, and sell them,” said John.
“Owning a franchise had been a goal of ours for a while,” said Jennifer. “We analyzed a lot of different companies, but we couldn’t find the right opportunity until we came across Scooter’s Coffee.”
“When I saw the Scooter’s Coffee model, I thought it was ideal,” said John. “It’s so simple, it’s brilliant. I tried to pick it apart but couldn’t find any mistakes.”
Scooter’s Coffee, based in Omaha, Nebraska, specializes in artisan espresso drinks, fruit smoothies, baked-from-scratch pastries, and features its signature drink, the CarameliciousÒ. 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.
According to the latest market trends compiled by the National Coffee Association, 60% of Americans drank coffee in the past day. That’s more than those reported to have been drinking tea, juice, soda, or even tap water! And 28% people reported getting coffee at a coffee shop or restaurant in the past day — a number that’s almost back to pre-pandemic levels. 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! ®” are helping Americans stay caffeinated and safe while providing high-quality products with a smile.
“The product is great. The service is great. Every experience we’ve had at Scooter’s Coffee has been extremely positive,” said Jennifer. “Plus, the company’s core values align with our own and we are proud to represent them.”
“Having started several businesses, I am really impressed with the level of involvement and support you get from Scooter’s Coffee,” added John.
“We’re very excited to see John and Jennifer Schmitt join Scooter’s Coffee,” said Kelly Crummer, Scooter’s Coffee Senior Director of Franchise Recruitment. “They share our core values of integrity, love, humility, and courage. They’ll be a great addition to our franchise system.”
