COFFEE SHOPS A STAPLE OF SOCIETY The UK coffee shop industry has seen growth for twenty consecutive years and become intrinsic in modern life, but what exactly has solidified their position as such an important staple of society? A RELAXED SOCIAL SPACE The coffee shop is completely unique in the foodservice and hospitality sectors, especially when you compare their atmosphere to restaurants, pubs and fast-food chains. Their calm setting is perfect for friends to catch-up, eating a relaxed lunch, or even focusing on work or reading.
A REFLECTION OF THE CONSCIOUS CONSUMER The most popular coffee shops are particularly open about their ethical beliefs and practices. For instance, they may openly talk about their exclusive use of ethically sourced coffee, and maintain transparency around their policies of reusing and recycling. These establishments encourage their consumers to be proud of their loyalty to the site.
