BIGGBY® COFFEE Featured in Franchise Business Review for Top Franchises for Veterans 2017

 

East Lansing, MI, November 22, 2017- BIGGBY® COFFEE has been named one of the best franchises for veterans in 2017. Franchise Business Review, a well-respected resource for potential franchise owners, recently published their list of Top 100 Franchises for Veterans to include BIGGBY®. The list was created using feedback from veterans regarding their experiences as franchisees and accompanies 12 years of additional research into franchise concepts done by the company. According to the Franchise Business Review website, “The Top 100 Franchises for Veterans featured in the list received very high marks in owner satisfaction, and were highly rated by the vets that own them.” The entire list and further information can be obtained via the Franchise Business Review website. For information on franchising with BIGGBY® COFFEE, visit biggby.com or call 866-579-7025.
 

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, Michael McFall and Bob Fish, on a handshake and $4,000, decided to franchise the concept. BIGGBY® COFFEE’s cultural values of Make Friends, Have Fun, B Yourself, Love People, 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. The “Big ‘B’” on the orange background caught on, and today BIGGBY® COFFEE has 261 cafes open or under contract across nine states including: Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Florida, and Texas.
