Baristas to Open Third Mall Location with BMOC - Expands Food Services

SEATTLE, March 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Baristas Coffee Company, Inc. (OTCQB: BCCI), "Seattle's World Famous Costume Coffee" announced that BMOC Partners, who is a Baristas master franchiser, has completed the lease agreements for its third franchised Baristas Coffee Company location, serving eastern and central Pennsylvania.

The location in the 800,000 square foot super-regional shopping center Schuylkill Valley Mall, on the fringes of the Philadelphia DMA and the massive Susquehanna River valley, will be located in the center of the mall's food court area, adjoining Pearl Cinemas and neighboring national brands Arby's and Subway.

The 1,600 square foot eatery is the largest to date in the continuation of the BMOC development plan for Baristas franchises. This location will have a dedicated cafe seating area for guests, further expanding the cafe experience. The location also boasts a mezzanine office suite for BMOC's expanding Baristas operations in the area.

The cafe is currently scheduled to open on or before Memorial Day weekend.

Baristas CEO Barry Henthorn stated:  "This new location will be the third to open under our Master Franchise agreement with BMOC Partners.  It also marks an expansion of the Baristas Brand into formidable food offerings and sit-down, walk-in traffic. The experience–an understanding of the food services industry and multi-location duplication that BMOC brings to the table–is paying dividends."

About Baristas Coffee Company (BCCI): Headquartered in the Seattle, Washington area, Baristas Coffee Company, Inc. was formed to create a national brand of drive-thru espresso stands. BCCI is accomplishing this by acquiring established businesses that fit its model, opening new locations, and franchising. Baristas has separated itself from the competition with its "theme" of joining attractive female baristas in entertaining costumes preparing the finest beverages available on the market. Baristas also now offers K-Cups for retail distribution. Baristas is also the subject of "Baristas Grounded in Seattle," a reality TV show that premiered Oct. 11, 2014 on WEtv (and can be viewed for a short time at http://youtu.be/NnTP58vbc1k) that takes an unprecedented and brutally honest look into the lives behind the scenes of girls from a variety of backgrounds who work in the Baristas stands. Baristas can currently be found in seven greater Seattle area locations as well as in Florida and Montana. Your state, Coming Soon!
