FCI Announces Volcano's Coffee - FOR RELEASE – December 30, 2005

Local Sarasota Franchise Company Expands Florida-based Coffee Bar

The pioneering, Orlando-based Volcano’s Coffee Bar & Roastery owners prepare as they embark on the expansion of their unique concept.  Volcano’s, located in Longwood on 434, founded their business on a love for coffee and a profound dedication to freshness.

Franchises are now available to coffee-loving entrepreneurs who want to become a part of the Volcano’s business.  With the help of Volcano’s field representatives and the Sarasota-based Franchise Consultants, Inc., new franchisees will afford the benefit of extensive in-depth industry expertise backed by a solid business plan, a streamlined management system and a conglomerate of professionals committed to fulfilling the maximum potential of each and every store.

The first franchise has been awarded and will be opening soon in Winter Garden.

The number of coffee shops in the United States is increasing in leaps and bounds along with coffee consumption.  Incredibly, this growing trend shows that in 1997, Florida had 117 coffee shops.  In 2005, Floridians can be found sipping on that ever-so precious cup of coffee in 908 coffee shops throughout the state, proving the growth in Florida, alone, has risen by 640.17%.

What makes Volcano’s stand out from the crowd?  Their remarkable coffees from around the world are grown in volcanic soil at high elevation among the shadows of the world’s greatest volcanoes, where rich volcanic soil and the cool mists of low lying clouds host the world’s rarest and most precious beans.

Skillfully handpicked and naturally sun dried, “volcanically grown coffees” are more than just a heritage of artisan cultivation; they are nurtured according to age-old organic farming methods built upon a mutual respect for the environment and surrounding communities.

Inside the store, visitors can, not only sip on coffee, they can treat themselves to gelato, panini, smoothies and other delights.  Inside the store, you feel you’re sitting in a cross between a traditional Italian “Cafeteria” meets a rustic, tropical island coffee plantation.  Now that’s unique!
