Seahawks WR Cooper Kupp opens new flagship store for family coffee brand in Arkansas

Seattle Seahawks Wide Receiver Cooper Kupp opened a new flagship store for a coffee brand he created with his wife and family.

The company, Dodo Coffee Company, opened a new location in Fayetteville, Arkansas on Saturday.

“Opening this location means a lot because of everything it took to get here,” Kupp said in a prepared statement. “There were plenty of moments when the path forward was not clear, but our family believed in what we were building, and the Fayetteville community continued to support us. Today is about everyone who helped keep Dodo moving.”

Kupp, a two-time Super Bowl champion and former first-team All-Pro, launched Dodo Coffee with his wife, Anna, Anna’s sister and her husband, and Anna’s parents in 2024 in Arkansas. But, just a year later, eminent domain forced the location to shut down, causing them to pivot to operating the coffee business online and out of a trailer while searching for a new permanent location.

“Closing the original shop was difficult because we had put so much into that space,” Anna’s sister, Sarah Ojeda, said. “The trailer gave us a way to keep showing up for people. We were able to meet customers at events, partner with businesses around town and stay connected while this new location came together. Opening the doors today is something our entire family is proud of.”

Dodo Coffee grows and harvests its own syrups and milk from a local farm, while sourcing its beans from locations including Indonesia, Ethiopia, and Hawaii. Beyond its newly opened flagship store, Dodo Coffee also sells its products online and through select events and pop-ups.

Kupp and the Seahawks kick off the season with a Super Bowl rematch against the New England Patriots on Sept. 9.
