We deliver barista-quality coffee to offices and workplaces, meeting the surging demand for premium perks as companies bring teams back together. Businesses love Break because it boosts employee morale and productivity.

Break Coffee specializes in a white glove, business-to-business, coffee-as-a-service. We install bean-to-cup coffee machines in businesses and provide an all-inclusive subscription model that includes freshly roasted coffee and weekly or bi-weekly service. Franchisees place machines in offices, country clubs, schools, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, car dealerships, and other workplaces. We offer free installation, a free trial, and no contract. Trials are converted into paid monthly subscriptions. Every client generates consistent, predictable recurring revenue, and each new account adds to a growing base of repeat income. All billing and collections is handled by headquarters, so franchisees can focus on sales, marketing, and customer service. The model consistently produces strong financial results across the system. Every single Break franchisee was profitable in 2024, with an average net operating margin of 44%. The low labor, home-based structure, and high margins translate into impressive unit economics. Once machines are installed and the subscription begins, each account runs on a recurring cycle of deliveries and cleanings - giving owners a level of income predictability that’s rare in franchising. Break offers two ownership paths: the Owner-Operator who runs the business full-time with no employees, and the Executive Owner who keeps their W-2 job, manages a Service Rep, and focuses on sales. Both models benefit from a flexible schedule and scalable earning potential. Franchisees are supported by a seasoned leadership team with decades of experience, exclusive distribution agreements, and a proprietary portal that centralizes inventory, billing and customer management. Beyond strong margins and predictable income, Break Coffee offers meaningful tax advantages. Under Section 179, franchisees can deduct 100% of their equipment costs in the first year, dramatically improving early-stage cash flow and ROI. Combined with national partnerships, a white-glove service model, and growing market tailwinds from return-to-office trends, Break represents one of the most compelling franchise opportunities today: a low-overhead, high-margin, compounding recurring revenue model built around a product everyone loves. , submission_idempotent_id=05f11e2c-5671-4745-882f-d47d485dbaa9, technology=[CRM, Inventory Management, Billing], employees_per_mature_location=5 or fewer employees, territory_description=2000 businesses with 20+ employees, brand_summary_marketing_revision=We bring cafe‑quality coffee to the workplace by installing bean‑to‑cup machines that use fresh-roasted, premium coffee and fresh milk.
