March 25, 2025 // Franchising.com // EAST LANSING, MI — BIGGBY® COFFEE is marking its 30th birthday with a celebration on March 26. BIGGBY® COFFEE's journey exemplifies the power of putting people first and strengthening the communities they serve.

"Most businesses don't make it past five years," said Co-Founder and Co-CEO Bob Fish. "We've navigated three different economic cycles, a financial crisis and COVID. We've been nimble, perseverant and maintained our durability."

"Our company thrives because of the people who power it — our team members, franchise owners, customers and vendor partners,” said Co-Founder and Co-CEO Mike McFall. “We are dedicated to unlocking human potential, encouraging every individual to pursue their passions and be themselves, while ensuring our culture remains deeply rooted in care, connection, inclusion and belonging."

BIGGBY® COFFEE remains focused on transparent business practices and sustainable growth, with a focus on revolutionizing coffee sourcing. The company aims to achieve 100% Farm-Direct sourcing by 2028, having already achieved 50% for all coffee bought throughout the BIGGBY® COFFEE system in August 2024, reinforcing its dedication to ethical practices and environmental stewardship. 

"Our investments continue to be in the restoration and protection of our Earth for the next generation," Fish said. "We're committed to focusing on health, safety and security as fundamental building blocks for personal and professional growth."

Fish emphasizes that the company's success has been a collective achievement: "Our success really revolves around the consumer who has supported us since 1995, our franchisees, our owner-operators, the people that work in our home office and our vendors,” he said. “All those people are really the ones responsible for making BIGGBY®."

To celebrate the milestone — and those who have made is possible — BIGGBY® COFFEE invites guests to join teams on March 26th to party like it’s 1995, offering its signature Caramel Marvel Latte, which has turned many first-time visitors into long-time BIGGBY® COFFEE fanatics, at a throwback price of 95 cents.

"The BIGGBY® experience is more than just about serving a great cup of coffee," McFall said. "It's about creating a legacy of enduring impact. We strongly believe that if you start with doing the right thing by your customers, employees and partners, profits will follow."
