Folgers
Folgers is a popular brand of coffee in the United States, and one of the largest-selling ground coffee brands in the country. The company was founded in San Francisco, California, by James A. Folger in 1850 as the Pioneer Steam Coffee and Spice Mills.
History
James A. Folger, a carpenter from Nantucket, Massachusetts, arrived in San Francisco during the California Gold Rush. He was hired by the Pioneer Steam Coffee and Spice Mills, and by 1865, he became a full partner of the company. In 1872, he bought out the other partners and renamed the company to J.A. Folger & Co.
During the 20th century, Folgers became a nationally recognized brand. In 1963, it was acquired by Procter & Gamble (P&G). Under P&G, Folgers introduced several new products, including Folgers Flavors, a line of flavored coffee.
In 2008, P&G announced the sale of Folgers to The J.M. Smucker Company. Today, Folgers is a part of the Smucker's family of brands.
Products
Folgers offers a wide range of coffee products, including ground coffee, instant coffee, and single-serve packets. It also offers flavored coffees and a line of coffee designed for use in Keurig brewing systems.
Some of the popular Folgers products include:
- Folgers Classic Roast: A medium-roast coffee that is the brand's signature product.
- Folgers Black Silk: A dark-roast coffee with a bold, yet smooth taste.
- Folgers 100% Colombian: A medium-dark roast coffee made with 100% Colombian beans.
- Folgers Flavors: A line of flavored coffees, including Vanilla, Hazelnut, and Mocha Swirl.
Advertising
Folgers is well-known for its advertising. The brand's jingle, "The Best Part of Wakin' Up is Folgers in Your Cup," has been a staple of American television since the 1980s.
