 Our Mission.  At Espresso Americano, it has never been our intent to simply enter a given market with a short term mindset.  Our philosophy is simple: to provide the highest level of drink preparation, attention to detail, design, training, drink customization, and service available in the industry today.  Espresso Americano seeks to enter regions of the world with a long-term perspective that takes into consideration the subtleties of a given culture, without ever compromising our identity or our original Seattle influence.

Our Mission Header
The Espresso Americano model takes advantage of a country's ability to produce the highest quality operational and aftermarket items.  Using coffee as an example, we believe it is unreasonable to assume that the United States is the only country capable of roasting first-rate coffee.  Espresso Americano utilizes roasters in a private labeled capacity for our franchise shops that are already established in the country of expansion.  By doing this, we significantly reduce the base price, warehousing and distribution considerations.  The end result is decreased cost to the individual franchise and greater profitability.  Local quality monitoring and 
availability also translate into fresher and better drinks for the consumer due to the decreased time of shipping and distribution.  Since all the items are carefully selected and private labeled for our coffee shops, image and identity are never compromised.

Espresso Americano continually strives to stand in opposition to the cookie cutter approach to international franchising.  Instead, we seek to work closely with domestic partners in a given country, with a common goal for the long-term benefit of all.
