COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 24, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Looking for information on how to open a coffee shop? Learn how to start a thriving business in your state from the coffee shop startup experts at Crimson Cup Coffee & Tea.
The award-winning roaster's 7 Steps coffee shop startup consulting team recently published online guides with startup tips and resources for each of the 50 states. The company plans to update each state's guide with additional information over the next year.
Through its 7 Steps to Coffee Shop Success program, Roast magazine's 2016 Macro Roaster of the Year has helped set up over 300 independent coffee shops in 30 states.
The company currently supports 188 established coffee shops that have been operating successfully for as long as 20 years. It plans to help about 20 new shops open in 2023 – and is eager to help more entrepreneurs achieve their dreams.
"Although the basics of coffee shop operation remain the same from state to state, the economic opportunities, business creation and licensing requirements do vary," said Crimson Cup Founder and President Greg Ubert. "We're excited to share information and resources to help entrepreneurs expedite their startup journeys."
"If you run into any roadblocks or just want to discuss your vision with a coffee expert, you can reach our startup team by calling 1-888-800-9224," he added.
Ubert initially wrote his book, Seven Steps to Success: A Common-sense Guide to Succeed to Specialty Coffee, to help struggling coffee shop customers master all aspects of successful coffee shop operations.
"As a coffee roaster and coffee business consultant, Crimson Cup believes our company only succeeds when our customers do," Ubert said. "As a result, we support coffee shop owners at every step, from concept through opening day and beyond."

The book became the foundation of the company's 7 Steps to Success coffee shop startup program.
"We help entrepreneurs with little or no coffee experience become owners of thriving coffee shops serving their local communities," Ubert said. "From choosing a terrific location and writing a strong coffee shop business plan to buying and laying out equipment, hiring and training staff and more, our team is here to guide you."
As a one-stop shop for independent coffee shops, Crimson Cup also supplies award-winning coffee, the best coffee shop supplies in the business, and ongoing support to help coffee businesses thrive.
