Franchise owner Rami Abboud told The Star that he plans to bring a friendly, hospitality-focused vibe to the brand’s first Kansas City area store. “Our goal is to make Qamaria more than just a place to pick up coffee, to be honest,” he said. “We put a lot of thought to make a warm atmosphere. We want people from all backgrounds to feel at home.” It will have all the typical offerings found in its locations in Michigan, Illinois, California, Texas and beyond.
