Category: Franchise Development

BIGGBY® COFFEE, the over 300-unit franchise dedicated to helping its franchisees, employees and customers build a life they love, is well on its way to its 2028 goal: 1,000 units open. There are currently 316 open locations, with an additional 153 in development, and the brand is not slowing down.

 

“We have had a strong year of openings because of the momentum we built from 2020 and into 2021. Despite the issues most have been facing with inflation, labor shortages, real estate challenges and supply chain impact, we have not been slowing down on our growth,” explained Tony DiPietro, VP of emerging market development at BIGGBY® COFFEE.

 

This year alone, the brand has opened 38 new stores and signed franchise agreements for 59 more. 28 stores are projected to open in Q4 alone, bringing the year’s total to 66 anticipated new openings.

Much of this can be attributed to the company’s culture, intentional growth strategy and Area Representative Program.

 

BIGGBY® COFFEE’s Area Representative Program allows there to be “boots on the ground” in most markets, generating leads, closing deals and supporting local franchisees as they open and build their business. Each representative is a franchisee as well, equipping them with the personal experience they need to discuss the brand and guide their peers through the process.

 

This program is one aspect of a larger cultural initiative.
