The complexity behind ingress and egress rights is that they require you to also have rights to another piece of property. After all, you can't exit your property if you don't have the right to enter into the adjacent property.
Startup Costs. The type of location and whether a coffee shop is independent or financed are both major determinants of startup costs. A coffee cart can cost $20,000 to $25,000 to start up while a kiosk may cost $25,000 to $75,000.Drive-through locations are typically $80,000 to $200,000, although smaller units can be less expensive.ariable food cost is a small part of the cost of running a coffee shop. Rent, which shouldn't exceed 15 percent of sales, is another major expense. Staff cost, including payroll taxes, benefits and payroll accounting services, should stay under 35 percent of projected sales, according to Crimson Cup Coffee and Tea.
Location. The location of your coffee shop is one of the first aspects you should consider when you plan to open one. As a rule, the total cost of the rental should be approximately 15% of your total sales, but it is important to refer mainly to the first few weeks after you opened the coffee shop.
