Caribou Coffee Partners with Jungle Jim's International Market to Open New Cincinnati Location
Caribou Coffee Offers Distinctive Coffeehouse Experience with Third Cincinnati-Area Opening
MINNEAPOLIS, July 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Caribou Coffee Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: CBOU) – the second largest company-owned premium coffeehouse operator in the United States based on the number of coffeehouses – has officially opened its latest Ohio location, a coffeehouse located in the soon-to-be-opened Jungle Jim's International Market in Cincinnati's Eastgate Complex.
The coffeehouse is the third Cincinnati, Ohio location for Caribou Coffee and like all other Caribou coffeehouses, the store will offer fans the premium handcrafted beverages and warm and inviting coffeehouse environment that Caribou is known for. The coffeehouse, which is located at 4450 Eastgate Blvd, officially opened its doors on Friday, July 6, 2012 and welcomed fans from the Cincinnati community throughout the weekend.
"We couldn't be more thrilled to partner with Jungle Jim's, a signature Ohio culinary destination, with our newest location," said Alfredo Martel, senior vice president of marketing and product management. "We feel our offerings are an excellent fit, and we're looking forward to getting to know the Union Township community, and to providing local fans with a comfortable place to relax, visit with friends, and enjoy our handcrafted beverages and other signature menu items."
Caribou fans can enter the new coffeehouse from the Eastgate Complex parking lot and will also be able to access the store via Jungle Jim's once the Market opens in September.
The new Caribou location will provide the Cincinnati community with a comfortable coffeehouse experience and will feature unique decor that was inspired by the store's themes: passion for coffee and sustainability. Guests will find the familiar Caribou Coffee community table, which was designed using reclaimed rustic wood for its base and features a table top made from a composite material that includes real coffee beans. The table is intended to foster friendship by bringing guests together in the central hub of the store. To highlight Caribou's commitment to sustainability, the coffeehouse's community light fixtures feature cork shades, which is a renewable material. Like Caribou coffeehouses across the country, the new Eastgate location will offer best-in-class products, including 100 percent Rainforest Alliance Certified™ coffees and espresso, beverages made with real, all-natural chocolate, wholesome breakfast offerings and all-new sparkling teas and juices.
