The History of the PJ’s Coffee Veteran Franchise License Giveaway

We started our Veteran Franchise License Giveaway in 2017 as a way to provide motivated veterans with entrepreneurial ambitions a path to business ownership. Since launching the annual giveaway, we have awarded three veterans with free franchise licenses.

“With many of our previous veteran franchisees, we’ve seen a seamless transition from military life to entrepreneurship, so we started this initiative to attract like-minded individuals to our concept, and as a way of saying ‘thank you for your service,’” said Ryan Stansbury, PJ’s Coffee Vice President of Franchise Development.

Last year’s winner, Michael Adams, has 22 years of military experience and was responsible for managing the logistics surrounding personal protective equipment (PPE) and nationwide medical supply requests during the pandemic – showcasing his dedication to serving and protecting people. Combining his entrepreneurial spirit with a focus on family, Michael is bringing his daughters on board with him, which aligned perfectly with our core values.
