Black Sheep Coffee is to open a store at 90–92 Gordon Street in Glasgow city centre on Tuesday 27 October, run by franchisee SUR Group.
Located moments from Glasgow Central Station, the store is designed mainly as a grab-and-go site for commuters, office workers, local residents and visitors, with 20 seats inside, additional outdoor seating and takeaway options.
The opening will create around 20 jobs, adding to the 150 supported by the franchisees’ Black Sheep Coffee operation. For the Glasgow-born franchisees, Suhail Rehman, CEO of SUR Group, and Tariq Din, its Business Development Director, the investment reflects a commitment to creating local jobs and continuing to invest in the city where they grew up.
The store has been designed to complement its surroundings, retaining elements of the building’s external masonry and stonework and bringing some of its traditional features into the interior, where they will sit alongside Black Sheep Coffee‘s contemporary interior style.
To mark the opening, customers visiting on 27 October will be able to buy coffees for £1, and the first 100 customers will receive a Black Sheep Coffee tote bag.
The store is part of SUR Group’s continued investment in Scotland, with further openings planned at Glasgow Fort, Clydebank and Stirling over the coming months. It also adds to Black Sheep Coffee’s expansion across the UK, which this year has included a 10-site deal in central London.
