A drive-thru barista concept or other drive-thru quick serve restaurants in the I-75, Benchwood Road, and Miller Lane Business District holds very strong feasibility, bordering on high potential, for several compelling reasons:
• High Traffic Volume: The strategic location at the "Crossroads of America" (I-70 and I-75 intersection), combined with significant local business park traffic, provides a constant flow of potential customers.
• Ultimate Convenience: Drive-thru service offers unparalleled speed and ease, appealing strongly to commuters, busy professionals, and interstate travelers who prioritize quick stops.
• Target Audience Alignment: The concept directly caters to the needs of the diverse groups present in the area – those commuting to work, employees in nearby offices, and travelers passing through.
• Potential for Lower Overhead: A drive-thru-only model can be more cost-efficient than a traditional coffee shop, potentially leading to lower rent, fewer staff, and simpler operations.
• Demand for Quality Coffee: There's an ongoing market for high-quality, specialized coffee experiences beyond what large chains typically offer.
