Haraz Coffee wins NRN’s Coffee Showdown

The Yemeni coffeehouse out of Dearborn, Michigan, beat Alfred Coffee in the finals to claim top honors.

Haraz Coffee House has emerged victorious in Nation’s Restaurant News’ first-ever Coffee Showdown, defeating runner-up Alfred Coffee in the competition celebrating up-and-coming emerging coffee chains.

The Showdown series highlighted chains that could be the next Starbucks, and finalists and winners were determined by NRN readers themselves.

The Dearborn, Michigan-based has been demonstrating growth momentum, nearly doubling its footprint to 31 locations last year while achieving 78.5% sales growth. It has expanded beyond its Michigan roots, with the highest concentration of locations now in Texas.

Alfred Coffee, the West Hollywood-based “neighborhood coffee shop of Los Angeles,” secured second place. It had 25 locations at the end of last year and 13.2% sales growth.
