Established in 2013 and with the first outlet opening in Cardiff in 2018, BUBL is a Waffle Hub that specialises in serving customers waffle art – delicious waffles made with high quality, fresh ingredients with a choice of delicious toppings and flavours of ice cream to go with them. Other desert choices include Waffle Lolly Sticks and Liege Waffles.

Customers can also choose from a range of drinks including quality coffee, hot chocolate, shakes and soft drinks.

A relatively new business, BUBL – The Waffle Hub already has ambitious expansion plans to open outlets in shopping centres across the UK and further afield. It will also be offering a delivery service so customers can receive waffles straight to their door.

The team behind BUBL has a great deal of experience of working with successful businesses in the industry, supplying them with crepe, waffle, milkshake or barista supplies before they took the decision to strike out and set up their own waffle outlet. During that time they have trained hundreds of people and businesses, putting them in the perfect position to create and set up their own state-of-the-art food operation. It’s an exciting time to join forces with BUBL – The Waffle Hub as a new generation of waffle kiosks is about to appear at shopping centres across the country.

Coffee Shop Franchises

As the British cafe culture grows last year the UK spent over £7.9bn in coffee shops.

The number of coffee shops grew to well past 20,000 in 2015, driven by a 12% increase in the number of branded coffee shop chains, according to the Project Cafe 2016 UK report from Allegra World Coffee Portal.

Costa, Starbucks and Caffè Nero, which when combined control more than half of the branded coffee shop market, led the coffee shop sector with a growth of 15% to an annual turnover of an amazing £3.3bn

With this sort of grow you can see why some many successful coffee businesses decided to franchise to enable them to compete with the major brands and take a slice of this ever growing market. Some of these coffee franchises are the traditional coffee shop like the above major brands but some have also been innovative and even made mobile coffee shop franchises, a coffee shop on wheels by converting vans to deliver to offices, industrial estates etc which both lower the businesses overheads and also brings coffee shops to more people that maybe would work too far away from a traditional coffee shop.
