Bear Creek Coffee vs Ziggi's Coffee Franchise Comparison

Bear Creek Coffee was founded in 2000 on the foundation of exceptional high quality specialty coffee and unequaled service. Bear Creek Coffee has gone thru many changes since that time, now with new leadership Bear Creek Coffee will go back to the basics.

Chris Williamson, Owner of Bear Creek Coffee, brings key experience and passion in servicing wholesale and retail customers in the coffee industry. 'We are committed to exceptional quality in our fresh roasted small batch coffees and providing unequaled service to our customers, this is the paramount goal of our Bear Creek Coffee Team.'

Efficiency, economy and profitability, coupled with superior products, service, and value are the foundation of Bear Creek Coffee's "It's a Great Business Opportunity" program. New operators are often inexperienced in the food service/coffee industry. Our licensees receive continuing support, beginning with primary planning and location selection, access to excellent marketing information as well as expert guidance with interior design, build-out and installation. Grand opening support is our pleasure to provide! Yours, Mine or Ours!

Bear Creek Licensees are not restricted to Corporate menu or marketing packages. Licensees have the leeway to elaborate or change menu items as fits their specific clientele. Specialty Gourmet Coffees are the basis of our operations, whether Double Drive Thrus, Cafe Build outs or Carts. Licensee/owners have flexibility, allowing them to focus on the tastes of their own target market.

 

What started as a small coffee shop on the corner of Main Street in downtown Longmont, Colorado in 2004, has since grown to multiple drive-thru and coffeehouse locations across the U.S. From the beginning, Ziggi’s mission has always been simple: Not only provide a superior cup of coffee, but also superior service customers can rely on.

Ziggi's Coffee has developed a franchise program focused on the success of our franchisees. With the same attention to detail that has gone into creating the perfect cup of coffee, the Ziggi's Franchise opportunity was created after over a decade of running successful coffee shops and drive-thrus. Now, with a proven model, Ziggi's has developed a process and system for you to duplicate that success by joining our amazing family. We've built a strong local business presence that focuses on community, product, and profitability.
