About Blue Bottle Coffee Stock
Blue Bottle Coffee was first opened in Oakland, California by founder James Freeman in 2002. Blue Bottle aims to provide a coffee experience for customers seeking freshly-brewed, high-quality coffee. Freeman established the company based on the principle of quality beans and fresh coffee and has continued this commitment to top quality. More from the company:
Blue Bottle Coffee primarily sells coffee (usually as a subscription delivery) to their customers. They also operate a network of coffee shops, cafes, coffee carts, and also sell coffee accessories such as brewing equipment. Blue Bottle's differentiation is primarily quality. They use top quality and responsibly sourced coffee beans and ship it to customers within 24 hours after the beans have been roasted to Blue Bottle's specifications. Coffee in their stores and cafes has been roasted within the past 48 hours. According to Blue Bottle, this along with the quality of their beans is part of the company's aim for quality and flavor.
