The first store was opened in October of 2005 in Brooklyn, Pretoria with resounding success. The concept was fresh and well researched. It catered for a niche market of discerning clientele who wanted good food as well as vibey ambiance without sacrificing the quality of their surroundings.
The very cosmopolitan look and feel of Co.fi appeals to a wide variety of consumers and therefore amassed popularity very quickly.
The Co.fi Franchise Company has created an environment where people feel free to express themselves casually, socially and professionally; where we provide the canvas and our customers the rest…thus building strong and successful ventures which will have an impact and blossom nationwide.
We are at all times dedicated to our customers and employees – without ever sacrificing the quality which our enterprise strives to achieve and maintain.
The Co.fi Franchise Company provides support to all its franchisees in a number of areas, both before and after opening a new outlet.

Training is continuous and is provided by way of lecture style presentation, training manuals and hands-on in-store training at various Co.fi restaurants, depending on the location of the new venture.
