Your own coffee point, running without you.
Coffee First is a self-service coffee-to-go franchise. A bean-to-cup machine, a two-square-metre footprint and a brand that already sells across Europe. You pick the location; we deliver everything else.
No baristas, no shifts, no rent for a full cafe. The machine grinds fresh beans, steams fresh milk and reports every cup to your phone. One investment, one partner, one monthly report.
Point vs cafe
Filled arc = Coffee First as a share of a typical 40 m² cafeLaunch in 30 days
A cafe takes four months to fit out. A point opens in one.
Fully automated
No shifts, no payroll. The machine sells, brews and rinses itself.
Compact format
One twentieth of the floor space. A lobby corner is enough.
Sells around the clock
Night shifts, early trains and weekends are all trading hours.
Cafe margin, no cafe costs
Per cup after beans, milk, cups and payment fees.

About the franchise
Coffee First is a European coffee-to-go franchise built around self-service bean-to-cup machines. Founded in Berlin in 2019, the company designs its own machines, roasts its own blend and supports a network of partner points in Germany, Poland, Austria and Portugal.
The coffee-to-go format replaces the counter, the barista and the kitchen with one automated machine. A partner invests in a single point, the machine sells around the clock, and Coffee First supplies beans, milk, service and software under one monthly fee.
Typical locations are business centres, university campuses, hospitals, petrol stations and transport hubs: anywhere with steady footfall and no time to queue. A point needs two square metres, one power socket and either a water connection or a tank.
Opening a Coffee First franchise takes about thirty days from application to first cup. Partners receive a location assessment, a fixed business plan, installation, training and ongoing support. Payback at typical locations is between eight and fourteen months.
