Kahwa to start franchising

Kahwa Coffee Roasters, the St. Petersburg-based coffee chain, has recently announced that it will be expanding throughout the United States and will start franchising with a focus on Florida first. As per a press release, Raphael Perrier, the co-founder of Kahwa Coffee Roaster, said that their plan is to start franchising in Florida in the first year and then expand to other territories.
Perrier explained that the company took the decision to start franchising first in Florida as it wants to ensure the franchisees are successful as we grow. He added that the expansion plan has been in the works for five years and that the timing was right to start expansion in other cities like Orlando, Fort Myers, Jacksonville, and Naples. The co-founder believes that finding the right partners will help them expand at a faster rate.
