Hermanos founders at a Colombian coffee farm

Franchise Opportunity · Colombian Specialty Coffee · UK

FRANCHISE WITH HERMANOS COLOMBIAN COFFEE ROASTER.

ROOTED IN COLOMBIA. GROWN IN THE UK.

Hermanos began as a pop-up with a simple idea, to bring the true spirit of Colombian coffee to the UK. Ten locations later, that idea has become a proven, premium coffee shop business, built on direct trade sourcing, in house roasting and a hospitality experience customers keep coming back for. We’re now opening the brand to franchise partners who share that same standard and passion.

TRUE COLOMBIAN SPIRIT

Built on heritage. Roasted with purpose.

What began as a single pop up has grown into ten locations across London, anchored by our own roastery in Walthamstow. Every bean we serve is sourced directly, roasted in house and delivered with the same quality and consistency, wherever you find us.

We built Hermanos around three ideas that still guide every decision we make:

  • Bringing Colombia to the world. Communicating our culture and heritage authentically and with respect.
  • Caring for our environments and communities. Working directly with farmers and rewarding the people behind our coffee.
  • Taking pride in what we create. Holding every location to the same high standard of quality and practice.

Built on heritage, direct trade, and hands-on quality, Hermanos is a brand customers trust – and we’re ready to scale.

More Than a Cup of Coffee

FROM FARMER TO CUP, AND MORE.

From farmer to cup, Hermanos coffee is direct-trade, fully traceable, and roasted in-house at our Walthamstow facility. Every batch is evaluated against industry-recognised standards to ensure a consistently exceptional pour everywhere.

But Hermanos is more than what’s served over the counter. Our product range spans retail coffee beans, tasting kits, gift sets, pods, accessories and merchandising.

For franchise partners, this diverse range unlocks multiple high-margin revenue streams. For customers, it offers endless reasons to keep coming back.

Bring Colombia to your city.

Hermanos is more than a coffee shop. It is Colombian heritage, direct trade coffee and genuine hospitality, brought to life in every location. As a franchise partner, you bring that same spirit to your own community.

The Ideal Hermanos Franchisee

We’re looking for operators, not just investors.

The ideal Hermanos franchisee is an experienced, growth oriented operator who combines sharp commercial acumen with a genuine respect for premium brand integrity. Whether launching a single Hermanos site or pursuing multi-unit development, they bring:

  • A proven track record: experience in food & beverage, hospitality, retail or franchising is preferred.
  • Execution focus: strong operational discipline, from managing people to maintaining consistent quality.
  • Local market expertise: real knowledge of their target territory, its property landscape and its customers.
  • An understanding of premium value: recognising Hermanos as a speciality product built on storytelling, quality and heritage, not a high volume commodity chain.
  • A commitment to customer experience: creating a welcoming, vibrant, refined atmosphere that matches the quality in the cup.
  • A growth mindset: the ambition and the financial liquidity to expand beyond a single site over time.
