Caribou Coffee is an attractive up and coming coffee company with 484 coffeehouses at the end of 2007 including 52 franchised coffeehouses. CBOU's coffeehouses are located in 16 states, Washington, DC. and International markets. CBOU has a strong start in the coffee business and has a lot of room to expand.
