Just Love Coffee Cafe started in 2009, originally as an online coffee service designed to support families in the adoption process. This distinctive origin laid the groundwork for the development of a full-fledged coffee shop franchise, blending a love for exceptional coffee with a dedication to community engagement and support.

While the exact location of Just Love Coffee Cafe's headquarters isn’t specified, the brand boasts a notable presence in the Nashville, Tennessee area, where it operates multiple outlets. This regional concentration indicates a strong operational hub in or near Nashville.

The franchise model of Just Love Coffee Cafe was introduced following the initial success of its coffee shops. The first store opened in 2011, and by 2014, after refining the business model and food program, the franchise system was officially launched. This methodical approach ensured the appeal and sustainability of their franchise offering.

Just Love Coffee Cafe is renowned for its specialty coffee and hand-roasted beans, which have garnered recognition in competitions and are available in stores like Whole Foods and Fresh Market.

Territory Protection

Just Love Coffee Cafe does not offer exclusive territories to its franchisees. Franchisees may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned locations, or other distribution channels and competitive brands managed by the franchisor.

Each franchise is designated for a specific location, known as the "Site," which must receive approval from the franchisor and be situated within a "Primary Area."

The franchisor commits not to grant another franchise or operate a Just Love Coffee Cafe from a fixed location within a franchisee's Primary Area, provided the franchisee adheres to the Franchise Agreement.
