Cups Coffee is a subscription service that delivers coffee pods to those who are seeking a more convenient method of consuming the beverage on a daily basis.
The brand prides itself on offering premium roasted coffee that is as fresh as possible, and reinforces this by offering a "date roasted" stamp on the box of coffee pods it delivers to subscribers' doors. This ensures that consumers are aware of just how fresh the coffee they are consuming is, despite the fact that it is shipped from elsewhere.
The Cups coffee brand argues that most coffee pods that are found on the market sit in warehouses for a long time, and is able to differentiate itself by avoiding this and ensuring that the coffee it offers remains fresh.
