Franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems, including training and support, operations, franchisor/franchisee relations and financial opportunity.A purpose-driven company, the founders of BIGGBY’s goal is to help everyone — including Home Office staff, franchise owners, baristas and vendor partners — to create a life that they love.“While 2020 definitely created challenges for the industry last year, it also created a whole lot of focus on what we needed to do and what’s really important,” said BIGGBY co-founder and co-CEO Mike McFall. “And that’s supporting our franchisees.”“We know that we’re doing our job as a franchisor when our franchise owners are able to be fully engaged and satisfied with their customers, staff and communities, and loving what they do,” said co-founder and co-CEO Bob Fish. “To have reached this milestone nine times and to be honored with a place within the hall of fame is truly special.”About BIGGBY® COFFEEBIGGBY® COFFEE, based in East Lansing, Mich., 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 names like Teddy Bear® and Caramel Marvel®, BIGGBY® baristas provide a unique experience focused on brightening their customers’ day and supporting them in building a life they love. The “Big ‘B’” on the orange background caught on, and today BIGGBY® COFFEE has more than 240 cafes across many states including Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Kentucky and Florida. In 2018 BIGGBY® launched an Area Representative Program and currently has eight Area Representatives in six states.
