COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Want to learn how to open a coffee shop in Oklahoma? Get tips on starting a profitable business in The Sooner State from coffee shop startup experts at Crimson Cup Coffee & Tea.
Through its 7 Steps to Success coffee shop startup program, Roast magazine’s 2016 Macro Roaster of the Year has taught over 300 entrepreneurs in 30 states how to open their own independent coffee shops.
Now, the company’s 7 Steps coffee shop startup consulting team has added to its series of state-level coffee shop startup guides with, “How to Start a Coffee Shop in Oklahoma.”
“Oklahoma is a terrific place to start a coffee shop!” said Crimson Cup Founder and President Greg Ubert.
“In fact, Oklahoma ranks 36th among the states in the number of coffee shops per capita, with fewer than one coffee shop for every 6,918 residents. That leaves a lot of Oklahomans without a local coffee shop, especially in the smaller cities and towns.”
The program is based on Ubert’s book, Seven Steps to Success: A Common-sense Guide to Succeed in Specialty Coffee, which he wrote to help coffee shop owners develop profitable businesses by mastering all aspects of successful coffee shop operations.
“We help entrepreneurs with little or no coffee experience become owners of thriving coffee shops serving their local communities,” he said.
“From choosing a terrific location and writing a strong coffee shop business plan to buying and laying out equipment, hiring and training staff and more, our team is here to guide you.”

Besides the Oklahoma guide, Crimson Cup recently published guides on How to Start a Coffee Shop in Texas, Ohio, North Carolina, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Tennessee, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Virginia, Missouri, Wisconsin, Connecticut, New Jersey, Iowa, Alabama, Maine, Arkansas, Vermont, Rhode Island, Utah, Colorado, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Kansas, Wyoming and South Dakota.
The roaster will continue to post a state-level guide each week until all 50 states are covered.
“Although the fundamentals of coffee shop operation remain the same from state to state, the economic opportunities, business formation and licensing requirements vary widely,” Ubert said. “We’re excited to share information and resources to help entrepreneurs expedite their startup journey.”
He invited anyone who is thinking of opening a coffee shop in any state to call Crimson Cup for guidance.
“If you run into any roadblocks or just want to discuss your vision with a coffee expert, you can reach our startup team by calling 1-888-800-9224.”
