Drinks franchise opportunities

Automation, innovation and consumer interest in new taste experiences mean that confidence is high in the UK drinks sector. In fact, food and drink manufacturing in the UK is now worth a very healthy £95.4 billion. And if there is one thing the British love, it's popping out for a nice meal and a few drinks. Which means that out of home hospitality now generates £54.7 billion in income. That’s not to say this is not a highly competitive industry, particularly retailing drinks. The British shop around for the best deals on everything these days, and look for value-for-money trusted brand names.

This means, if you are considering setting up a business in the UK drinks market, plunging in with a franchise deal could make the difference between sinking and swimming.

What sort of drinks franchises are on offer?

As this is such a massive retail sector, you are highly likely to find a drinks franchise that matches your individual skillset and interests. This could include, for example, becoming self-employed as a franchisee for simplistic hospitality firm Anticafe, or leading coffee brands Costa and Starbucks.

Or being your own boss, thanks to a franchise deal with Revive Juice Bars or off licence network Bargain Booze. Niche sectors include Beetle Juice, a franchise opportunity serving cocktails from converted cars.

Benefits of a drinks franchise

The choice may be diverse, but the advantages of starting up a drinks franchise remain constant. Apart from winning loyal customers with an established brand, you also get vital help with business management, from location sourcing to food hygiene compliance, and from cheaper equipment and supplies to a smart new website. Your drinks franchise partner can help drive customers to you too, with national marketing activities.
