Our Coffee Truck Franchise Revolution
The birth of The Rush Coffee Franchise is both typical and unique at the same time. Typical in that it’s the story of burn-out from a non-profit corporate career and the need for freedom, more meaning and happiness.
After 10 years spent growing and learning in a corporate-run non-profit organization, co-founder Claire Oksayan was determined to make a change and break free. With 2 young boys at home, she felt like she was missing out on the most important pieces of life, and it was time to re-claim her freedom and family. Together with her husband and co-founder, Parsegh, the idea for The Rush Coffee was born.
Riding on her experience as a barista and career at a non-profit, and Parsegh’s experience and skills in everything else they would need, they set out to claim the American dream of working for themselves, setting their own schedule, and playing by their own rules.
Their first The Rush Coffee truck hit the streets in March 2017, the second truck came in 2018 and the third in 2019. Within 3 short years, The Rush Coffee had made a big impact in the San Diego County mobile coffee (and really just overall food truck franchise) scene, delivering happiness to tens of thousands of people each year.

Business Soars and a Coffee Truck Franchise is Born
Unknown to everyone back in 2017, mobile food and beverage businesses, would be nearly pandemic-proof. Considered “essential” by the government, we were able to not only remain open but also avoided many of the closure struggles that brick-and-mortar businesses faced.
Not too long into the pandemic, the customers were flooding in and The Rush Coffee experienced record-breaking months. Not only that, but we were able to launch our mobile coffee truck franchise and our first franchised truck hit the streets in North Austin, Texas at the end of 2021.
So Who Are We?
FAITH, FREEDOM AND FAMILY. THIS IS WHAT THE RUSH COFFEE FRANCHISE STANDS FOR.
We are thankful for the opportunity to manage and grow this unique business that God has provided for us, and it’s our faith that guides and grows us to build a solid coffee truck franchise opportunity for people who want to join us.
We believe in freedom for all people. No longer do you need to be chained to a soul-crushing career or feel forced to do things against your will just to keep your job. You can have the freedom of working for yourself as a coffee truck franchise owner – this means setting your own schedule and reclaiming your independence.
The Rush Coffee was built so we could have more time with our family. It has turned into a family business, with even our 2 sons getting involved, plus numerous siblings, parents and friends who have jumped in to help. This business is as much a part of our family as our beloved dog, Taco. We built our franchise business so others could enjoy the flexibility to live life on their own terms like we get to.
We have found a level of independence and autonomy that most middle-income Americans only dream about, especially now – and that same freedom is available to you. Consider joining our family as a coffee truck franchise owner and reclaiming your personal freedom.
HAPPINESS DELIVERED.
That is our tagline because we deliver delicious cups of happiness (a.k.a. coffee) to our customers wherever we go. But also because through our franchise offering, we get to deliver happiness (a.k.a. freedom and opportunity) to people just like you!
