Crimson Cup Founder and President Greg Ubert is among the central Ohio leaders honored as 2020 National Number Ones by The Columbus Foundation.
Individuals and organizations were honored at the annual National Number Ones luncheon on February 13th. The event recognizes those who have achieved top rankings in their fields.
“Our community is filled with extraordinary talent, and those honored today reflect that greatness,” said Douglas F. Kridler, president and CEO of The Columbus Foundation. “We recognize and thank these top achievers for their contributions to the prestige and progress of our community.”
Crimson Cup was recognized as the nation’s top Small Chain/Franchise Coffee Roaster at Golden Bean North America, the world’s largest coffee roasting competition.
At the 2019 competition, our Wayfarer Blend, Ethiopian Kossa Kebena and Natural Gesha Oxapampa Peru coffees won eight medals. Their combined scores won the Small Chain/Franchise Championship.
‘It’s an incredible honor to be part of such an accomplished group!” Greg said. “We’re proud that our hometown ranks number one in the country in so many ways.”
“Crimson Cup is thrilled to roast the best coffee of any small coffee chain in North America,” he added.
