Dunn Brothers Joins Collegiate Grounds
Say hello to a fresh dose of caffeine at the University of St. Thomas, thanks to Dunn Brothers Coffee. This Minneapolis icon has decided to brew its beans in the academic arena as the university's first official coffee partner. It's a smart move for a brand that cherishes community and quality in its coffee.
From Local Streets to Campus Seats
Once just a spark in St. Paul nearly 40 years ago, Dunn Brothers Coffee has grown to nearly 50 locations across seven states. Now, it's venturing into higher education with this deal—a first for the company. Students, faculty, and anyone else who trudges the halls of Minnesota's largest private university won't have to go far for their coffee fix anymore.
"From freshly roasted brewed coffee to handcrafted specialty beverages, we're excited to help fuel students, faculty, and staff throughout the academic year." — Ben Anderson, President of Dunn Brothers Coffee
With this collaboration, Dunn Brothers is aiming to caffeinate Minnesota's largest private university, bringing that home-roasted charm right to the heart of campus life. Their handcrafted speciality beverages and carefully roasted coffee will find their way into campus dining locations, catering services, and other on-campus venues.
A Blend of Tradition and Convenience
Lattes or espressos won't be in short supply, with spots like The Loft in the Anderson Student Center and the STEAM Café in the new Schoenecker Center serving them up. Think of these venues as the perfect pit stops between classes or during those late-night cramming sessions. It's all about making life a bit easier while maintaining that top-tier coffee quality.
Besides elevating coffee time to more than just a caffeine rush, this partnership adds another feather to the cap for St. Thomas, enhancing the campus atmosphere as a place for students to connect, unwind, or fuel up.
Welcome, Summer Sippers
It won't be long before the aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the air. The plan rolls out this July, teasing lucky summer students and faculty before the fall hustle begins. Dunn Brothers shows no signs of slowing down when it comes to ensuring top-notch quality and convenience on campus.
What's Brewing Next?
As the summer students start sipping, expect more details on what exactly will be on the menu and how expansive Dunn Brothers’ presence will be during the new academic year. These drinks could just be the starting point for more partnerships down the road.
Considering Dunn Brothers Coffee's recognition as having the top Cold Brew in America and a spot as one of the highest quality coffee chains in the U.S., this seems like a strategic extension that marries two well-regarded institutions in the community. Whether you're a student or just passing by, the impact of this partnership is sure to make waves—or at least stir your morning ritual.
