Coffee News
We publish Coffee News, a weekly print and online periodical distributed in restaurants, coffee shops, and other local waiting or dining locations. Our publication gives readers short, light reading while they are sitting, waiting, or eating, and it is designed to be displayed in holders or viewed online on mobile devices. We generate revenue by selling advertising space in each edition to local businesses, with ads arranged in a consistent format across the publication. Restaurants and other food-service locations typically make the print publication available to their customers as a complimentary service. We operate through exclusive geographic territories and provide both hard copy and digital editions to reach readers and advertisers in the local market.
