For the second year in a row, Travelin’ Tom’s Coffee has been named to the annual Inc. 5000 list ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private, independent companies.

The Inc. 5000 ranks private enterprises by multi-year revenue growth. The recognition highlights Travelin’ Tom’s trajectory as one of the fastest-growing mobile beverage concepts in the franchise sector.

Founded by Kona Ice founder Tony Lamb, Travelin’ Tom’s Coffee has scaled to more than 380 mobile units operating nationwide, with additional units in development. The brand has attracted both single-unit entrepreneurs and multi-unit operators seeking a flexible, scalable mobile business model.

“Being recognized by Inc. for the second consecutive year is a tremendous honor and a true testament to the strength of our team,” said Lamb, founder and CEO of Travelin’ Tom’s Coffee. “We saw an opportunity to take the mobile model we built with Kona Ice and create something special in the coffee space. More than 380 units later, we’re seeing the strength of that model and the demand for a high-quality, mobile coffee experience. We’re not stopping here.”

Travelin’ Tom’s mobile units are designed to deliver a specialty beverage experience without the traditional costs and infrastructure required of a brick-and-mortar coffee shop. Mobile units feature high-capacity beverage equipment, custom video-screen menu technology and a broad array of specialty drinks, including Nitro Cold Brew, frappes, teas, lemonades, and energy drinks. By bringing these offerings directly to customers, the brand delivers high-margin convenience wherever crowds gather.

As the company continues its nationwide expansion, Travelin’ Tom’s is offering franchise opportunities in new and existing markets while providing franchise owners with operational support and a turnkey mobile business model.
