## Story

**LANSING, MI —** The time has come to celebrate teachers! This September 5th, BIGGBY® COFFEE is celebrating Teacher Appreciation Day, which means the coffee franchise will be keeping teachers running, no matter how they like to get caffeinated. For any teacher with an ID, BIGGBY® COFFEE will be offering a $1.99 16oz hot or iced specialty beverage and a keychain specially designed for teachers, while supplies last.

On September 5th, educators can take advantage of the promotion to enjoy lattes, hot chocolates, tea lattes, BIGGBY® Blast energy drinks and more traditional coffee options like a hot coffee or cold brew.

BIGGBY® COFFEE has continually placed an emphasis on supporting people in building a life they love while showing unconditional love to others in the community. BIGGBY® COFFEE is especially passionate about supporting community members who serve others, and both the leadership team and local owners look forward to honoring educators as the 2023-24 school year kicks off.

The coffeehouse continues to broaden its reach; in the first half of the year, BIGGBY® COFFEE signed 43 new franchise agreements and opened 31 new shops. With over 360 coffeehouses nationwide and another 140 in development, the franchise is well on its way to reaching its 500-unit goal.

As it grows, BIGGBY® COFFEE remains devoted to supporting people in building a life they love, and this effort spans beyond its franchise owners. This school year, BIGGBY® COFFEE is spreading the love to the teachers who shape the little minds in the community on BIGGBY® COFFEE’s Teacher Appreciation Day and beyond.

BIGGBY® 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.

The brand’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® COFFEE 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 360 cafes across many states, including Virginia, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Idaho, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Kentucky and Florida.

The high-energy coffee franchise is celebrating teachers in its communities with a beverage promotion, free keychain and coupons to fuel the school year.
