About Coffee Man:

Coffee Man was founded in 2019 by co-owners Devin and Nick, with a mission to make unique craft cold brew that’s designed for everyone. Their unique process involved infusing flavors like fruits and flowers into coffee, a process similar to beer or kombucha. Coffee Man started small by popping up at apartment complexes and trade shows around Atlanta. For a few years, they worked out of a shared kitchen called PREP Atlanta and primarily focused on cold brew until 2022. Until the name changed to Coffee Man, the company was originally known as Coffee Man Cold Brew.

More events and more wholesale customers lead Coffee Man to increase their coffee knowledge and roast coffee from around the world. Once they started roasting their own coffee and changed the name, they added a new face to the brand. The current Coffee Man logo/character was created by Atlanta artist Carlie Ivie and inspired by creative cartoons like Futurama & Adventure time. This original logo took life as co-founder and designer Nick Lopez created coffee packaging with Coffee Man in the mountains, air balloons, Piedmont Park, and just living life to the fullest. This inspiration was built around the Life is Good brand and has allowed Coffee Man to compete in a saturated specialty coffee market. At this same time, Nick coined their current brand slogan "Coffee For All" to encompass their values around making coffee more approachable to customers and sustainable to growers and farmers.

In June 2023, Coffee Man opened their first retail location in downtown Hapeville, located near the Atlanta airport. Shortly after in October 2023, they opened their 2nd location in Blandtown that operates as a cold brewing space, whole bean production facility, specialty coffee shop, and event venue.

Over the past 5 years, Coffee Man has used sustainable sourcing, commitment to creativity, and whimsical branding/packaging to expand their wholesale business. This has allowed Coffee Man to work with large companies like Fresh Harvest, The Rounds, Publix, & HomeGoods. You can find Coffee Man 12oz coffee bags in all 200 Georgia Publix locations and all 1000 HomeGoods stores around the United States
