SACO – Aroma Joe’s, one of the nation’s leading handcrafted beverage franchises that is also headquartered in Maine, announces the opening of its newest location in Saco at 933 Portland Road. This 980-square-foot drive thru location features handcrafted coffee and espresso drinks, unique flavor infusions, signature AJ’s RUSH® Energy Drinks and all-day food options. The shop will be open daily from 4:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.
The shop will employ approximately 20 local residents and is the second Aroma Joe’s to open in Saco under the leadership of franchisee-extraordinaire Maryna Shuliakouskaya.

She now owns and operates 10 locations and is a passionate mentor and motivator for her staff and leadership teams.
“We’re excited to grow within the Saco community,” said Shuliakouskaya, owner of both Saco Aroma Joe’s locations. “This new store allows us to serve more guests and create additional opportunities for local team members. It’s all about sharing the positive energy that Aroma Joe’s is known for.”
