Dutch Bros Coffee plans to open four new U.S. locations by the end of 2026, although it declined to provide exact opening dates. The Arizona-based chain added 48 shops between April and June, including 44 company-owned locations, and has about 1,285 U.S. locations, according to its website. The planned expansion follows Dutch Bros' announcement that franchise owner Jim Thompson would retire after more than 20 years with the company and that it planned to acquire 29 of his locations. Chief Financial Officer of Dutch Bros Josh Guenser said the company has multiple growth plans in place.
