Simple Modern Partnering with Small Business Coffee Houses
to Inspire Togetherness and Community to Four U.S. Cities
The company will partner with some of the most beloved, small-business coffee houses in Kansas City, Nashville, Minneapolis and Denver to give away free coffee and personalized coffee tumblers. 

Simple Modern will launch its generosity and togetherness campaign,  “Simple Connections: Coffee Catch Up,” in four U.S. cities, starting Oct. 14. 

The campaign will bring togetherness and generosity to Kansas City, Nashville, Minneapolis and Denver through partnerships with local coffeehouses in each city.

“We want to help people gather with those they love and share coffee or other kinds of warm, seasonal drinks from local roasters and coffee houses across the country,” said Chris Hoyle, Simple Modern Chief Marketing Officer. “Our coffee tumblers are the best in the world, and we wanted to partner with the best, local coffee houses. In doing so, we’ll share our tumblers and buy people coffee on us. We hope this inspires connections and reconnections across the country.”

The campaign begins Oct. 14, with a takeover of Simple Modern’s social channels. First up, Simple Modern fans will be introduced to Kansas City’s The Roasterie, followed by Nashville’s 8th and Roast Oct. 15, then Minneapolis’ Get Down Coffee Oct. 16 and Denver’s Pinwheel Coffeehouse Oct. 17.

“And we want to hear from our collective 400,000 followers what coffeehouses we missed – where else do they want to gather and catch up?” Hoyle said. “We want to inspire togetherness where people want to gather. Our products are good everywhere, and we want to bring good everywhere too.”

To enter, followers will tag the friend they want to catch up with over coffee, and explain why they want to catch up. Follow Simple Modern’s Instagram and Facebook to learn more. Simple Modern will select winners Oct. 25. Selected winners will receive two Simple Modern coffee tumblers, engraved with their city’s coffee shop’s logo, and a gift card to their city’s coffee shop.

“We know this will be a fun campaign that celebrates supporting small businesses, getting together with people you love and enjoying some of the best coffee in America with the No. 1 best coffee tumbler,” Hoyle said. “I can’t think of anything much better to do as the weather turns crisper this fall.”
