Red Owl Coffee, the fast-growing coffee chain, hopes to compete with its big-name competitors with a new location coming to Englewood at 5720 University Blvd. W.
The company’s newest location is expected to replace the Liquid Lava Car Wash in about 90 days, according to Jacksonville Daily Record. Florida franchise development partner Michael Stadnicki tells the publication that this location is franchised to Dalton Hart, Dagen Anderson, and Darren Rackley, who plan to open 15 locations over the next five to seven years throughout the Jacksonville area. The first Red Owl Coffee is expected to open in less than a month at 208 Blanding Boulevard in Orange Park.
Red Owl Coffee opened its first location in Georgia in 2016 before expanding to ten locations, including nine in Georgia and one in Chattanooga. The company is also working on sites in Macclenny, Ocala, and Tallahassee. Red Owl Coffee offers a handful of smoothies, tea, and coffee options, as well as various pastries such as croissants, muffins, and bagels. Stadnicki will assist all franchise owners with opening, running, and growing their locations. Red Owl Coffee is slowly taking over the Southeast U.S. with hopes of eventually being able to compete with the big-name brands found throughout Northeast Florida, including Starbucks, Ellianos, 7Brew, and more.
“Red Owl Coffee Company looks forward to bringing Florida residents our small batch fresh roasted coffee, hand-crafted espresso, and smoothie drinks along with our tasty breakfast sandwiches,” Stadnicki tells JDR. “We have individual franchisees opening several locations. We look forward to sharing our coffee and hospitality with the City of Jacksonville and throughout Florida.”
