Coffee Catering at Detwiler’s Grand Opening | Sarasota & Bradenton
On a bright Saturday morning in Bradenton, Reform Coffee had the honor of being part of something special: the warehouse grand opening for Detwiler’s Farm Market. This wasn’t just another event—it was a meaningful moment for a beloved family-owned Sarasota grocery business expanding their reach. As Reform Coffee, we were brought in not only to cater exceptional coffee but to help bring energy, brand presence, and a sense of hospitality to the celebration.
About Detwiler’s — Roots, Growth & Community
Detwiler’s Farm Market began in 2002 under Henry Detwiler Sr., growing from humble roadside stands into a chain of family-run grocery markets throughout Sarasota and Manatee counties. They run six locations offering fresh produce, meat, deli, bakery, and specialty goods, all with a community-first, faith-driven philosophy. Their story is one of family, faith, and service—not just growing a business, but growing roots.
Reform Coffee’s Role: Hospitality, Branding, Connection
When Detwiler’s invited us to coffee cater their grand opening, we saw an opportunity not just to serve coffee, but to do so in alignment with their story. Here’s how we made it more than coffee:

This event underscored what we do every day—serving Sarasota, Tampa, St. Pete, Venice, Bradenton, and Southwest Florida with coffee catering for weddings, brand activations, corporate events, and experiential hospitality.
Why Events Like These Matter for Brand Growth
When businesses invite guests—customers, partners, employees—the experience matters. Coffee may seem small, but when it’s done with excellence, it becomes:
A moment of rest and delight during a busy event
A chance for your brand to appear in photos and social stories
A touchpoint that says, “We care about every detail—especially yours”
For Detwiler’s, this grand opening wasn’t just about brick and mortar—it was about signaling to their community that they’re here to stay, rooted in values. And incorporating coffee hospitality helped make that message felt.
