Gimme! Coffee is a coffeeroaster and third-wave coffee shop, based in New York, US, with espresso bars in Ithaca and Trumansburg. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Gimme! in 2020 closed the Manhattan and Brooklyn-based locations, and began an Ithaca-area delivery service.[1][2] Gimme! Coffee also has a wholesale service that caters to coffee and espresso establishments.[3] In January 2020, Colleen Anunu replaced founder Kevin Cuddeback as CEO after he had served 20 years in the role;[4] Anunu then made the company into a worker-owned cooperative, which it remains in July 25, 2022.[5] Gimme says that it forms relationships with farmers who grow coffee; farmers may receive a price premium which can help them improve their operations.
