In 1989, founding directors Emmanuel Kokoris and Emmanuel Drivas were out searching for a late night cup of coffee – and not just any coffee, an excellent coffee. After an unsuccessful journey and hours of chatting, the pair planned a new business venture, “The Coffee Club”. When John Lazarou brought his experience to the partnership, the three stories of the founders combined to create the success of The Coffee Club. From the very beginning The Coffee Club was founded on family, friends and customer need. The customer has been and always will be our focus from the first coffee poured at Brisbane’s Eagle Street Pier, the three partners built a simple, but powerful philosophy of treating strangers as you would guests in your own home.
Today, Three Stories is not only the story of three great friends founding a business, but also the name of our newest, and best coffee blend ever, which has launched to overwhelming reviews.
The Coffee Club is proud of our past, and so excited about our future and hope that you can be a part of it. The Coffee Club is reaching new heights as an Australian born, international franchise with +385 stores across 12 countries. We are part of the Minor DKL Food Group, backed by our founders and Minor International.
Part of becoming a franchisee with The Coffee Club means we provide you systems, tools and know-how and a brand identity that customers already know and love. Success requires the ability to follow the proven system, lead your team, work in your store and be actively engaged in your community. Our marketing programs also help provide our franchise partners with a competitive edge to connect with customers and drive sales.
