During the episode, they explained how direct work with farmers is shaping the company’s sourcing goals, why it matters for the future of coffee and how these efforts are influencing the way they think about building the brand.The episode highlights BIGGBY® COFFEE’s goal to source 100% of its beans through farm-direct, regenerative agriculture by 2028. Through its work with OBIIS, the company is partnering directly with farmers around the world, creating relationships that support soil health, strengthen communities and build long-term resilience in coffee-growing regions facing the realities of climate change.Bob and Michelle describe this approach as “capitalism with boundaries” — the idea that businesses must operate within planetary limits and moral responsibilities. It’s not philanthropy, they explain, but a pathway to survival for companies that rely on global agricultural systems under increasing strain.Throughout the conversation, the Fishes emphasize the role of empathy, storytelling and personal purpose in leading a sustainable brand. They also outline how direct-to-farmer sourcing creates transparency for coffee drinkers, helping them connect more deeply with the people who grow their beans.For BIGGBY® COFFEE, regenerative agriculture isn’t a marketing angle. It’s a long-term business strategy and a core part of its mission to build a company that supports people, protects the planet and inspires others in the industry to rethink what good business can look like.Watch the episode&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoXYFCmfPyA">here</a>.&nbsp;To learn more about franchising with BIGGBY® COFFEE, visit&nbsp;<a href="https://www.biggbyfranchising.com/.">https://www.biggbyfranchising.com/.</a>&nbsp;

EAST LANSING, Mich. —&nbsp;<a href="https://www.biggbyfranchising.com/">BIGGBY® COFFEE</a>, the 460+ unit high-energy coffee franchise, closed out 2025 with steady systemwide expansion, stronger performance in established cafés and renewed energy around its 30th birthday celebration and brand relaunch, setting the stage for a growth-focused 2026 built on customer experience, operational consistency and franchisee support.Across cafés that were open in both 2024 and 2025,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/biggbycoffee/info">BIGGBY®</a> said more guests visited throughout the year, helping drive overall performance.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ekaylorcpa/">Erin Kaylor</a>, president and chief financial officer, said the results reflect both brand loyalty and strong demand for new menu offerings.“Our cafés saw more guests coming through the doors in 2025, and that’s a great indicator of how customers are responding to what we’re offering,” Kaylor said. “We’ve worked hard to deliver new products while staying true to what people already love about BIGGBY®.”<h2>A 30th Birthday Offer That Brought Guests Back</h2>BIGGBY® kicked off key momentum with its&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/biggbycoffee/celebrating-30-years-of-biggby-coffee-a-legacy-of-growth-and-a-bright-future-2728921">30th birthday celebration</a>, leaning into a value-forward offer designed to bring new and returning guests through the doors. The promotion featured a 95-cent Caramel Marvel — the brand’s signature drink.“We wanted to celebrate with something fun and accessible,” Kaylor said. “It was a simple way to thank customers, bring people in and remind them why BIGGBY® has been part of their routines for so long.”&nbsp;Following the birthday celebration, the brand introduced&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/biggbycoffee/biggby-coffee-unveils-first-major-brand-refresh-in-30-years-2729578">a refreshed look and updated marketing materials</a> to reinforce consistent messaging across the system.<h2>More Cafés, More Momentum, More Loyal Guests</h2>BIGGBY® also expanded its footprint, opening 47 new stores in 2025 and finishing the year with 460 locations across 13 states. BIGGBY® COFFEE’s customer loyalty remained a headline storyline, including recognition that reflected both enthusiasm and repeat visitation during a year when many consumers weighed discretionary spending more carefully.“One of the really wonderful things about BIGGBY® is how loyal our customers truly are,” Kaylor said. “We were proud to rank&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/biggbycoffee/biggby-coffee-usa-today-best-coffee-chain-2025-2730743">No. 2 Best Coffee Chain by USA Today</a>,&nbsp; and that was thanks to our customers showing their support for the brand and how much they truly love BIGGBY®.”<h2>Strengthening Franchisee Performance Through Training and Consulting</h2>Alongside consumer-facing wins, BIGGBY® spent 2025 sharpening franchise support — including training updates that place greater emphasis on business fundamentals, financial understanding and long-term growth planning.“We’ve put more focus on helping franchisees build stronger businesses,” Kaylor said. “That means clearer tools around financial planning, understanding performance and preparing for growth as they scale.”<h2>2026 Priorities: Loyalty, Tech Investment and Operational Excellence</h2>Looking ahead, BIGGBY® plans to lean further into loyalty-building promotions, continued technology investment and stronger operational execution across the system.Early in 2026, the brand launched “Twice as Nice Tuesdays,” which offers double loyalty points on specialty beverages each Tuesday for the first season of the year, alongside a TWIX©-inspired specialty beverage in partnership with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mars.com/">Mars, Incorporated</a>.BIGGBY® also plans to build on app improvements introduced in 2025, including updates aimed at making digital ordering faster and easier.“Updating the app was a meaningful step forward,” Kaylor said. “Our goal was to make ordering simpler and reduce friction for customers, and we’re continuing to build on that in 2026.”As BIGGBY® grows, the brand said it will remain selective about franchise expansion, prioritizing owners aligned with its community-first culture.“We want people who care about their communities and want to build something local and lasting,” Kaylor said. “That’s when BIGGBY® works best.”About The BIGGBY® COFFEE FranchiseBIGGBY® COFFEE, headquartered in East Lansing, Michigan, is a national coffee franchise with over 460 locations across 13 states.
