US-based drive-through speciality coffee brand Ellianos Coffee has signed a development agreement to open four new stores in the Tampa Bay area in the US state of Florida.

The move is part of the brand’s ongoing expansion in Florida and the southeastern US.

Ellianos Coffee has already established its presence in other parts of Florida, including Orlando and the central region.

The Tampa expansion is expected to further bolster the brand’s presence in the state.

Ellianos’ expansion into the Tampa metropolitan area follows its growth strategy in other Florida locations and the Jacksonville area, where it now runs eight stores.

The company stated: “This expansion comes at a time of unprecedented growth for Ellianos, which currently operates 54 stores and has seen remarkable progress throughout 2024.”

The brand has established its presence in the drive-through coffee industry with its offerings such as Caffe Dolce Latte, the Iced Tuscany Toffee Latte and Southern Grit Bowls.

Ellianos’ expansion plans include seeking franchisees in Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina and North Carolina, as it continues to grow its footprint in Florida and Georgia.

Ellianos Coffee franchise sales director Jonathan Morgan said: “We are thrilled to bring Ellianos Coffee to the vibrant Tampa community. This four-store deal represents a significant step in our expansion plans and demonstrates the strong demand for our unique coffee experience.

“We’re excited to introduce Tampa residents to our quality coffee served with Southern hospitality. At Ellianos, we’re not just about serving great coffee. We’re about creating an experience that resonates with our Southern roots while delivering the high-quality beverages our customers expect.

“Our expansion into Tampa allows us to share this unique experience with a new community, and we’re confident that Tampa residents will embrace our brand just as enthusiastically as our existing customers have.”

In August 2024, Ellianos re-launched its pumpkin-flavoured menu for the autumn season in the US.
