Jacobs is a brand of coffee that originated in Germany. It was founded by Johann Jacobs in 1895 in the city of Bremen. The brand is known for its rich and aromatic coffee blends, which have made it a popular choice among coffee drinkers in Europe and around the world.

History[edit | edit source]

The history of Jacobs coffee dates back to 1895 when Johann Jacobs opened a specialty coffee shop in Bremen. His vision was to provide high-quality coffee to his customers, and he quickly gained a reputation for his exceptional blends. Over the years, the brand expanded its product line and distribution, becoming one of the leading coffee brands in Germany.

In the 1980s, Jacobs merged with the Swiss company Interfood to form Jacobs Suchard. This merger allowed the brand to expand its reach and product offerings. In 1993, Jacobs Suchard was acquired by Kraft Foods, which later became part of Mondelez International.
