Veteran founder of multimillion-dollar company: 'This is the hardest thing I've ever done in my life' (Black Rifle Coffee)

The founder and CEO of Black Rifle Coffee Company, Evan Hafer, said he would rather return to combat than face rebuilding his business again from scratch.

"This is the hardest thing I've ever done in my life and I'm a former Green Beret [who] spent seven years in combat zones," Hafer told veteran correspondent Lara Logan on her Fox Nation show "No Agenda with Lara Logan."

In Season 3 of "No Agenda," Logan investigates the current state of affairs of America's veterans through the eyes of those who served — from veteran entrepreneurs to those carrying out humanitarian missions, to wounded warriors on the front lines of the veteran suicide crisis.

I don’t think he’s talking about the ca-rona just that starting a business from scratch was harder than being a green beret.

No. They do have store front operations also. The coffee is superior in my opinion. I’ve always hated starbucks coffee and dunkin is ok. This is my go to favorite. Whenever I’m in Savannah I make it a point to go there and get some coffee along with a shirt or two. They also offer a military discount and first responders too. I highly recommend even if they don’t have one near you to at least order some coffee from this patriotic company.

He has paid his dues and then moved on to start a company that roasts and grinds the best coffee that I’ve ever had. BZ to him and the company.

My order for Beyond Black, Murdered Out, and Blackbeard’s Delight is going to be delivered again this week. If one of these can’t get your motor started in the morning, then you might need a defibrillator.

Living in Savannah, GA I regularly stop by the BRC / Nine Line store for a cup and bags as gifts. It’s 1/2 mile off I-95 (Exit 94) if you’re wondering.
After reading this, will make a trip there tomorrow.

Whats a good afternoon/evening coffee? Not a “get started” coffee but a “keep going” from Black Rifle?

"I have this profound love for coffee. I have a love for firearms," said Hafer, a lifelong coffee aficionado. "It tends to infuriate progressives, too, which is also just a tertiary benefit that I never expected."

My wife insists on Black Rifle coffee. Has settled on Beyond Black as her choice for daily caffeine intake. We buy two bags at a time, on line.

Anyone wanting to watch some Veteran type humor can go on youtube and search “Mat Best”.

He’s the VP of BRCC.

His vids are hilarious.
