TOWN OF CHAMPION, New York (WWNY) – Jumpin’ Goat Drive Thru is opening up a new location in the town of Champion.
The new spot is set to be built on State Route 26 near the Carthage school campus. Look for the project to be built over the next several months.
Owner Erik Russell opened a Watertown location recently and says the support has been incredible, leading to the expansion into the West Carthage area.
“It’s a little nerve-racking. Even when you go into something that seems to have that support, so when you announce it, and everyone says ‘yes, this is so great, we’re so happy about this,’ it just gives you a little extra comfort, I guess, in going into it and taking a chance,” he said.
Other locations for the coffee business could happen outside of the North Country. Russell says he’s looking at Rochester and maybe Florida.
