Cuppy’s Coffee & More
March 29, 2007
Fort Walton Beach, FL -- Cuppy’s unique approach lets
employees decide who becomes a franchisee with structured
voting power.
Instead of relying on a committee of executives or board
of directors, Cuppy’s Coffee & More prefers to give the
power of granting a franchise to those who have the most
knowledge about how the franchise works: the corporate
employees.
Before a
Cuppy’s Coffee franchise is granted, every potential
candidate must pass the inspection of an employee-led
committee. Held throughout the work day, after work hours
and sometimes on weekends, the committees are made up of
employees volunteering their time to meet potential
“family members”, and seats on each committee are filled
on a first come, first served basis.
“Franchise Committees allow every employee a chance to
volunteer and participate in major company decisions,”
said employee Jeni Habas. “The committee gives me a
feeling that my opinion matters and that I am a part of
the Cuppy’s Coffee & More family on more than an
‘employment’ level.”
The franchise committees are made up of the people that
make the company run day-to-day; from receptionists to
vice presidents and office runners to accountants.
During a committee meeting, seven employees participate in
an interview session with the potential franchisee, and
members are encouraged to ask questions and provide
feedback. “I look for enthusiasm, determination and
passion when considering each one. It is important to me
that each franchisee has the motivation to help take
Cuppy’s to the next level now and in the future,” said
employee Natalie Muncy.
At the end of the committee session, the committee members
are asked to vote on whether or not the potential
franchisee should be granted a franchise and they must
give a valid reason for their decision. “Being able to
vote on whether or not a potential franchisee can become a
part of Cuppy’s Coffee makes me feel much more involved in
this company’s future as a whole,” said Muncy.
