The Omaha, Nebraska-based Scooter’s Coffee has announced that it will open three locations in Las Cruces, with the first scheduled to be ready for business by late spring.
Launched in 1988, Scooter’s Coffee to date has more than 400 stores up and running across the country.
The company, with a business plan featuring drive-up service, has significantly grown in just the last few years alone, adding more than one hundred locations since early 2021 and increasing its footprint from 23 to 30 states.
Scooter’s Coffee officials last year said that they want to have at least 1,000 stores opened by 2024, with expansion plans focusing on the states of the West.
The company’s stores average in size between 550 and 750 square feet, with walk-in counter and seating space.
Scooter’s Coffee has largely become popular due not only to the convenience of its drive-up stores, but also a menu that includes a wide variety of coffees, as well as blended drinks and smoothies.
The company’s game plan for Las Cruces will see a second store built and opened by the end of this year, with a third location expected to be completed by the spring of 2023.
