About Good Earth Coffeehouse and Bakery

The first Good Earth Coffeehouse opened in Calgary on a hot summer day in 1991. Our Founders, Nan Eskenazi and Michael Going, began with a desire to serve exceptional coffee and wholesome food, with a down-to-earth attitude. Nan hailed from the Pacific Northwest - a coffee mecca of sorts - thus she was in charge of creating the coffee part of Good Earth. Michael grew up on ranches in Southern Alberta and so he had a taste for real, good food and had the recipes too! Between the two of them they got Good Earth off to a good start. Since then many other folks have become a part of Good Earth. And they all brought great ideas, experiences, and recipes with them.

Now there are over forty cafes. They are warm and inviting places where people like to meet… for coffee, breakfast, lunch, a treat, a business meeting, dinner, a book club, a date, a break, a support group, a political uprising, or any other reason people like to get together! Many of our cafes feature communal seating, some furniture made from reclaimed wood (that means it was part of an old building and now has a new life in Good Earth), local art and sometimes live music.

Join our team and prosper with purpose.

About Presotea

The Master Franchise requires the opening of a minimum of 10 Presotea Shops in the protected Territory, within 6 years of the signing of the Master Franchise Agreement whether by developing directly or subfranchising.

The total investment necessary to begin operation of the Presotea master franchise ranges from $235,000 to $365,000, of which the initial down payment of the Master Franchise Fee to be paid to us is $14,000, as well as $20,000 for required initial training, $55,000 for required equipment, $18,000 for required branding, and $50,000 for required opening inventory of supplies and food, for the first owned or subfranchised Presotea Shop, which must be paid to the franchisor or their affiliate.
