Second Cup coming to Cardiff and four other locations in Wales
The coffee company will be continuing its United Kingdom expansion, opening new café locations in Cardiff and Swindon.
Second Cup’s upcoming location in Cardiff will be the first of five cafes anticipated to open in Wales. The first café will be located at 95 Queen Street, in Cardiff’s pedestrianized shopping area across from Next, within walking distance of Gorsedd Gardens. Second Cup Queen Street Cardiff is expected to open in September 2016.
Second Cup Swindon, the first café planned in South West England, is also expected to open this Autumn on Swindon’s pedestrianized shopping area at 35 The Parade, near Topshop and H&M. Swindon will be one of many Second Cup locations planned for the South West.
“We are delighted that our brand is well-received and expanding in the UK at full speed. We look forward to adding Cardiff and Swindon to our list of existing UK locations and look forward to future announcements of more cafes for the United Kingdom”, said Jim Ragas, President & CEO of The Second Cup Coffee Company Inc.
Second Cup grew from its humble beginnings in 1975 in Toronto, Ontario, and over the past 40 plus years the company has expanded globally to over 30 regions worldwide with over 160 cafes operating internationally. Second Cup is actively seeking new regional franchise partners for additional area development within the UK as well as globally.
