Raleigh Resident Brings Break Coffee Co. To Raleigh-Durham

May 06, 2026 // FranchisePR.com // RALEIGH, N.C. – Break Coffee Co. has a Raleigh, North Carolina franchisee, Marc DeWalle.

Break Coffee solves the problem of bad office coffee and lost productivity on coffee runs by equipping workplaces and other venues with automated bean-to-cup espresso systems and its own 100% Arabica blends, paired with concierge-style weekly service.

“I’m passionate about great coffee and Break Coffee offers barista level coffee for your work space,” said DeWalle, who has spent his career in the corporate world as a business/project manager, along with building several successful small businesses. “I’ve worked in offices with terrible coffee, and I don’t wish that on anyone. So, we’re fixing that!”

Break Coffee serves café-quality cappuccinos, lattes, and other specialty coffee drinks without upfront equipment purchases or single-use waste.

“We are bringing a new, barista-quality experience with automated bean-to-cup machines to North Carolina,” added JD DeYonker, CEO of Break Coffee Co., which has another location in Charlotte. “We are welcoming the DeWalle family to the Break Coffee franchise network.”

Break Coffee has connected a premium, “coffee-as-a-service” experience to a company’s bottom line. Oakscale Franchise Partners, which manages franchise sales for the Break Coffee brand, provides supportive services to franchisors and franchisees.

5-Star Concierge Coffee Service
As part of the 5-star Coffee Concierge service, Break Coffee machines are cleaned on a weekly basis by its trained staff.

Businesses are not forced into signing long-term contracts. Break Coffee owns the coffee machines and charges only for the coffee consumed on a weekly basis; this arrangement does not require long-term contracts.

“I’ve owned small businesses before and considered doing that again, but I found that Break Coffee is a strong, focused franchise with great people, systems and training,” DeWalle said. “It’s a way to hit the market much quicker!”

To let teams sample the service with no obligation, Break Coffee offers a two-week trial that includes delivery and installation, coffee for the trial period, and pickup if you decide not to continue.

Unmatched Support for Franchisees
Break Coffee Co. provides operations training for franchisees, who begin with two days of in-house training that allows them to start operating. Then, franchisees will receive coaching while working the first three weeks, learning the skills of a location sourcing assistant, reporting their findings on a daily basis to an area representative with expertise in the target area.

The franchise provides several benefits to franchisees:

Flexible Schedules: Break Coffee’s business model allows franchisees to work 30-60 minutes per client per week, excluding travel time, for about one to three days a week.

Systemized Approach: Break Coffee helps franchisees develop a business plan and trains them on how to operate and service the machines in a quick and easy, structured manner.

DeWalle lives in northern Raleigh with his wife, five children and two dogs. In addition to travel, the couple enjoys dining out and a good cup of coffee. “We are both committed to making Break Coffee a success and serving many happy customers!”
