Java City is owned by a local family, The Rogers. We work in and on the business to ensure it's and your success.
We buy directly from farmers, cutting out the middle man and directing profits directly to those making your coffee.
We want you to win along side us.
Through 99to1, we’re creating a new way to become a business owner with Java City Coffee, a Sacramento-born coffee company serving customers since 1985.
Our franchise model is designed to make ownership more accessible, combining the strength of an established coffee brand with a streamlined, mobile business model. Franchisees receive the tools, training, products, operational support, and brand resources needed to launch and grow their own Java City business.
But this is about more than selling great coffee. Java City has built its business around long-term relationships with coffee farmers and responsible sourcing. As our franchise network grows, so does our ability to buy more coffee directly from the farmers and communities behind every cup.
Build your business. Serve your community. Help us create a better coffee industry—one cup at a time.
A Java City franchise gives you the opportunity to own and operate your own coffee business under the established Java City brand. Through 99to1, franchisees receive access to the Java City brand, products, training, operating systems, marketing resources, and ongoing support.
No! Previous coffee or food service experience can be helpful, but it isn't required. We provide training designed to teach you how to operate your Java City business, prepare our products, serve customers, manage inventory, maintain food-safety standards, and build your local business.
Java City has been roasting coffee since 1985, and we're building a franchise model designed around simplicity, mobility, community, and great coffee. Our model gives entrepreneurs the opportunity to build their own business while being backed by an established coffee company and supply chain.
Not necessarily. Our franchise model is built around a flexible mobile coffee concept, allowing operators to bring Java City to customers rather than relying solely on customers coming to a traditional storefront. Depending on your approved opportunities, this can include events, businesses, schools, community gatherings, farmers markets, and other locations.
Initial investment varies depending on your franchise package, equipment, financing, territory, permitting requirements, and other startup expenses. Qualified candidates will receive detailed investment information as part of the franchise disclosure and application process.
Financing options may be available for qualified franchisees. Our team can walk you through available options and help you better understand the estimated startup investment and ongoing operating costs.
Java City believes great coffee starts with the people who grow it. We prioritize responsible sourcing and long-term relationships with coffee farmers and producing communities. Growing Java City also means creating greater opportunities to purchase coffee from and support the farmers behind our products.
