In an increasingly competitive market, coffee shops are faced with a more refined customer profile raising the standards of coffee shops. This whitepaper, supported by Modbar, explores the trends and challenges of the coffee market and what it means for operators

When it comes to creating a unique experience, great coffee is rarely enough. As, Niki Weegens, creative director of Onyx Coffee Lab in Northern Arkansas, US, explains, “the coffee being fantastic is fundamental, but we found that having excellent coffee is not necessarily enough. People who want excellent coffee have options.”

According to Ken Schwartz FCSI, president of SSA Foodservice Design and Consulting, the most important driver of the elevated standards in the coffee experience is the customers. “Consumers dictate by choice, and I think a knowledgeable customer is a great customer – they know what they want,” he says.
