Cafecito Announces $4M Investment in Five New Underserved Markets
DENVER — Cafecito today announced a $4 million expansion into five communities identified through a comprehensive analysis of median household income, commercial rents, and SNAP redemption density. The new locations will bring affordable coffee to neighborhoods the company describes as “historically overlooked, and reliably available.”
“We don’t see a low-income ZIP code. We see a family that deserves a good cup — and a lease that finally makes sense.”
