BIGGBY® COFFEE CELEBRATES ITS ROOTS WITH MEET AND GREET WITH FOUNDER AND CO-CEO

Posted on February 2, 2019

February 5, 2019, be sure to visit BIGGBY® COFFEE at 103 N. Dixie Way, in Roseland, Ind., for a meet and greet with BIGGBY® COFFEE founder and co-CEO Bob Fish between 8am and 11am. This exciting opportunity will be matched with $1 off specialty drinks or a free mug with any Bragel purchase with free hot brewed coffee for a month!

 

Store owner, Mike Brann, Jr., wanted to give his BIGGBY® COFFEE customers a chance to get to know the man behind the B. Throughout the event, Fish will enjoy coffee with customers and shake hands through the window. This event not only gives customers the opportunity to learn a little bit of BIGGBY® COFFEE history, but also showcases the down-to-earth, fun, loving, and caring attitude BIGGBY® COFFEE was built on.

 

This three-hour meet and greet will allow customers to also interact with the BIGGBY® COFFEE baristas. BIGGBY® COFFEE baristas are a very special group of people who encourage customers through their positive energy and willingness to put the customer first in all they do.

 

“It takes a village to raise a BIGGBY®,” Brann, Jr., said. “We are not just a coffee shop but a shop with a 20 plus year history. This is a celebration of all things BIGGBY® and coffee.”

 

With a purpose that BIGGBY® COFFEE exists to support people in building a life they love, and taglines like “we exist to love people” and “when you love the world, the world will love you back,” this event will allow people to get to know BIGGBY® COFFEE on a level that they wouldn’t always get on an ordinary day.

 

With their unmatched coffee selection and unique customization options, BIGGBY® COFFEE truly offers one of a kind coffee and beverages. Stop in February 5 between 8am and 11am for a cup of the world’s best coffee, just the way you like it, and say hi to the BIGGBY® COFFEE founder while you’re at it!

BIGGBY® COFFEE, East Lansing, Mich.-based, was started with a single store on March 15, 1995. One year later, and on the cusp of opening a second location, Bob Fish and Michael McFall, on a handshake and $4,000, decided to franchise the concept. BIGGBY® COFFEE’s cultural values of Make Friends, Have Fun, B Yourself, and Share Great Coffee help coffee-lovers and the coffee-curious alike benefit from a less pretentious and fun approach to the standard gourmet cafe paradigm. Besides connoisseur-worthy drinks with pronounceable names like Teddy Bear® and Caramel Marvel®, BIGGBY® baristas provide a unique experience focused on brightening their customer’s day and supporting them in building a life they love. The “Big ‘B’” on the orange background caught on, and today BIGGBY® COFFEE has 281 cafes open or under contract across 10 states including: Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Florida, Texas, and New Jersey. In 2018, BIGGBY® launched an Area Representative Program and currently has 8 area representatives in 6 states.
