JAH Realty LP (“JAH Realty”) is pleased to announce a lease with 7 Brew Coffee for a pad site at Portland Plaza, located at the hard corner of NW 39th Expressway (Historic Route 66) and N. Portland Ave. in Oklahoma City.
“7 Brew will be rolling out stores in Oklahoma City and this location will be one of their first sites”, said Jeff Norman, President of JAH Realty. “Construction is almost complete and we expect the store to open soon” said Norman. 7Crew Enterprise is one of the fastest growing franchisees of 7 Brew Coffee. 7 Brew Coffee specializes in espresso drinks — both hot, iced, and blended. Menu items also include energy drinks, cocoa, mocha chillers, smoothies, chai, tea, shakes, and 7Fizz. “Employees walk up to your vehicle to take your order and we have highly customizable drinks and a very personable experience,” said Drew Ritger, COO and director of franchising. It offers half off for first responders and a free drink on customers’ birthdays. Its first location opened in Rogers, Arkansas, in early 2017. It now has 150 locations in 24 states across the country. The founders named it 7 Brew for lucky number seven and perfection, with a goal to “always create the perfect drink, completely customizable and made your way,” a company spokesman said.
“Upon completion of the 7 Brew store, we will have achieved a total redevelopment of Portland Plaza,” said Elise Lopez, Vice President of Leasing for JAH Realty. “We are looking forward to the additional traffic that 7 Brew will generate with a high-volume drive-thru coffee store. Coffee shops have proven to be complimentary to other tenants in a shopping center setting and there is a void in this particular area for a drive-thru coffee operation.” Portland Plaza, anchored by Colaw Fitness and shadow anchored by a high-volume WinCo grocery store, is located adjacent to the nexus of I-44/Lake Hefner Parkway and 39th Expressway offering access to over 250,000 people within a 5-minute drive of this site. “There are few locations in Oklahoma County with the market reach of this site,” said Lopez. JAH has one remaining in-line space of 8,500 s.f. which was recently renovated for a potential Jr. Anchor tenant.
