Caribou Coffee announces plans to return to Cincinnati
A national premium coffeehouse chain has announced plans to return to the Ohio area and open dozens of new locations.
Caribou Coffee announced Tuesday that the company signed several multi-unit development agreements to open 60 franchises in Cincinnati, Dayton and Columbus.
Caribou Coffee closed its five Cincinnati coffeehouses in April 2013 and will now return to the area with a dozen new locations. They were formerly located in Beechmont and Blue Ash, on Cox Road and Tylersville Road and at Jungle Jim's Eastgate location.

In addition to being part of Panera Brands since 2021, Caribou is known for its commitment to making high-quality beverages and food using real, clean-label ingredients and no artificial sweeteners or coloring.
The coffeehouse, which was founded in Minnesota in 1993, launched its franchise program in October 2021 and went into an agreement with Mike Mariola Restaurants, which opened its first Caribou drive-thru/walk-up in Wooster, Ohio.
