The Coffee Club franchise operations app

Running a highly successful franchise business is not without its challenges. Behind NZ’s best cafe experience at The Coffee Club is a team that works hard to ensure standards are met on a daily basis. And with over 60 stores in New Zealand alone, there is never a dull moment.

The Coffee Club app designed by Muli Mobile

That’s why The Coffee Club chose to partner with Muli Mobile for its franchise operations support system. Centred around an easy-to-use mobile app, the system allows The Coffee Club operations team to streamline and simplify regular food and service quality checks at franchise stores.

Evaluating the performance of each franchise store on a regular basis used to produce piles of time-consuming paperwork, leading to employee stress and fatigue. Other issues included double handling and manual errors. Now, with a semi-automated and integrated system in place, The Coffee Club team is able to save hundreds of employee hours every quarter.

Now the operations team can worry less about the paper work and focus more on improving NZ’s best cafe experience yet further!
