Zarraffa’s Coffee expands standalone drive-thrus to Sunshine Coast
The coffee house chain opened its first standalone drive-thru on the Sunshine Coast on Nicklin Way, Currimundi.
Terry Bambury, the franchisee, said he had his eye on the site for the past few years and thought it had great potential as a drive thru.
“There has been a fantastic acceptance of drive thru coffee on the Sunshine Coast,” said Mr Bambury, who also owns stores at Morayfield, Sunshine Plaza, Caloundra and on Aerodrome Road Maroochydore.
“Considering the growth we have had in our other stores, we have been actively pursuing a location on Nicklin Way, with its high visibility and proximity to the hospital,” he said.
The new store will be the first standalone, purpose-built store on the Sunshine Coast with a 154 square metre footprint, with convenience features for its customers.
Zarraffa’s CEO Kenton Campbell said the Sunshine Coast is similarly poised for the type of brand expansion that the company has enjoyed on the Gold Coast but that it may take a few more years.
“As the population grows and infrastructure is built to support it, we know that our business model is positioned well in key areas to expand successfully with the region,” Campbell said.
“Our strategy is to work with our franchisees to grow their holdings in a strong and supported way, ensuring the brand continues to deliver its high standards of coffee and service to customers no matter if they are in Perth, Cairns or Currimundi.”
