- Where is the best place to have a coffee shop?
- Where would you have one if you were to start a coffee shop?
- What’s the most desirable location?
- Is it okay to have your coffee shop near other shops or would you choose a part of town with lower coffee shop density?
- What are some of the areas in metro Phoenix with low coffee shop density?
- Are there any areas in metro Phoenix that have an obvious lack of coffee houses? Is there a reason?
- Can a Starbucks thrive anywhere?
- Can a normal coffee house thrive anywhere?
- If a Starbucks opens across the street from an independent coffee house does that help or hinder?
- Would it be good or bad for a string of independent coffee houses to be situated in the same area (like car dealerships and furniture stores do).
- Do most consumers pick one coffee house and stick with it or do they frequent many places?
- What is the frequency with which a typical coffee shop patron visits?
And no, I’m not planning on opening a shop, I was just curious.

All excellent questions - I will be looking at many of those as Rocket Coffee Roasters will be opening another Valley location. This new location will be a combined roastery & coffee shop. Plus a bunch of innovative, interactive,
and brand spanking fresh stuff will be incorporated. The likes this Valley has never seen. Stay tuned…!!!
