Mighty Good Coffee began in Ann Arbor in 2006 with a clear purpose: to source beans responsibly, roast them with care, and make every cup a bridge to community. Over the years the company has expanded from a single small-batch roastery to supplying cafés across the region while keeping quality and local partnerships at its core.

In 2025, Mighty Good had a change in ownership, and Jess Harmon became Managing Director. After fifteen years in the specialty coffee world, Jess brings strong expertise in roasting, café operations, and logistics from work in Michigan and the South. Under this leadership Mighty Good has sharpened its processes, refined its roasts, and strengthened support for the people who make each brew possible.

Mighty Good Coffee is proudly queer-run and committed to small-batch craftsmanship. Every batch reflects hand-selected beans from trusted importers and precisely monitored roast profiles. This fall the company will open a new roastery, café, and training lab in Dexter Michigan allowing Mighty Good to grow its reach without sacrificing the community values and care that define it.

The company's early years included valuable lessons about respect, collaboration, and listening, with reminders that a great team matters as much as a great roast. Today, we’re doubling down on equity, transparency, and shared growth, ensuring every voice is valued and every cup is exceptional.
