It gives me the opportunity to maximise profit and compete with other cafes in the area because we have a point of difference. I love the flexibility of being my own boss and working hard for something that’s mine. We’re a big part of the community, we’re the meeting place."

Almost ready to start your future as a successful cafe owner? We’ve compiled a list of frequently asked questions to help you before you take the first step.
What makes Degani successful?
Built on the Melbourne cafe culture, our mission is to make our customers and our cafe owners happy each day. We believe the best way to do this is by making your cafe authentic, by reflecting your what local community wants and reflecting you, your passions and goals. We call this ‘My Degani’. ‘My Degani’ means it’s your Degani! As a Degani cafe owner, you’re in business for yourself, but not by yourself. This means you get the flexibility of independence, with the support of a tried and tested business model. It’s your menu, your design and your community!
What makes Degani coffee taste so good?
Australia loves Melbourne coffee culture, so we’re selling an unforgettable coffee experience every time! Our Degani coffee blend has been created with the same delicately balanced selection of high-grade specialty coffee beans since we opened our doors in 1999. Roasted with love in Melbourne each week, with the tradition, passion and an artist’s eye for detail to achieve the chocolate undertones and depth of flavour that our Degani customers crave. The secret ingredient is added at your local Degani. It’s your baristas knowledge of how you like your coffee, how to adjust the grind to achieve the perfect pour as the weather changes by the hour, how to make the steam quietly sing that sweet song that tells us our coffee is on the way.
Can I use my own suppliers?
Degani has approved suppliers that are able to supply you with all your needs, however if you require a product we can not source we are more than happy to work with you to find this product or a supplier that can help. Degani offers buying power on our products, which ensures the best price for you!
Can I have input to what my store looks like?
YES! This is our favourite part! We would love all of your thoughts and ideas and you’re part of the design process, this is how we make our stores unique. For example, our Hope Island café is Hamptons-themed with a boat hanging from the ceiling (the local community loves it)! We are committed to creating a unique and localized experience at every Degani destination, with no two stores looking the same. We do this to attract customers and give them a local Degani experience that they can’t get anywhere else. It’s just another way to make your business a success and meet our mission to make our cafe owners happy!
Can I have my own recipes on the menu?
Every Degani café’s menu is different! Your menu is always evolving and changing, as trends come and go. The beauty of the Degani flexibility is that we will work with you to insure that you are delivering what your customers want. It’s another way to make our cafe owners happier and wealthier. Therefore, if you have a favourite dish from your heritage or your childhood favourite, we would love to put them on your menu.
What is included in the ongoing marketing fee?
A tailor made marketing plan, to attract new customers and keep your current customers coming in more often. It’s all a part of our mission to make every Degani cafe owner happy and wealthy. Degani provides all your printing collateral, social media platforms, local store marketing programs and our national promotions.
