Background/History of the Business

The Gloria Jean's Coffees Story

In 1995, Nabi Saleh, a businessman internationally regarded for his coffee knowledge and expertise and Peter Irvine, former Managing Director of advertising agency DDB Needham, visited the United States to experience first hand the Gloria Jean's Coffees brand. Nabi and Peter identified the opportunity for this unique brand in Australia and saw the chance to provide Australian consumers with high quality coffee and consistent service in accessible locations.

Together they established Jireh International Pty Ltd, the company that holds the right to franchise Gloria Jean's Coffees in Australia, and most recently purchased the rights to the Gloria Jean's Coffees brand for all international countries (with the exception of the USA and Puerto Rico).

Nabi's expertise in the coffee and tea industries combined with Peter's background in franchising, marketing and advertising created the perfect recipe for a successful partnership.

In late 1996 Jireh International Pty Ltd opened the first Gloria Jean's Coffees store in Miranda, Sydney and two weeks later another in Eastgardens, also in Sydney. These stores were set up to thoroughly test the concept in the Australian market.

In early 1998, Gloria Jean's Coffees franchised its first store and within six years had opened 185 stores - all locally owned and operated by more than 100 franchisees. In 2003, they opened a franchise in Darwin meaning that the brand was now established in every state and territory.

Gloria Jean's Coffees continued growth is a result of an effective franchising model, stable management practices and a committed and enthusiastic team who are passionate about coffee and satisfying customers.

Jireh International Pty Ltd is a wholly Australian owned company. Nabi Saleh is the Chairman.
