If you’re curious about what it takes to blend tradition, innovation, and community into a small business, this episode is for you.

Welcome to a fresh episode of Business Inspires, the podcast powered by the Tri Village Chamber Partnership! In today’s conversation, co-hosts Katie Ellis and Brett Johnson sit down with Daniel Hamm, the new owner of Winans Coffee and Chocolate in Grandview Yard. Daniel brings a genuine passion for hospitality, a rich background in restaurant management, and a heartfelt connection to the Grandview community—which has been his home for nearly two decades.

Daniel shares his personal journey from Rochester, New York to Columbus, Ohio, his initial hesitancy and ultimate embrace of the franchise model, and how Winans became a staple in his personal and professional life.

He discusses plans for an exciting store refresh, including cozy new seating, decor updates, and specialty offerings like the much-anticipated Taylor Swift-inspired "Showgirl" latte.

Daniel also gives us a peek at upcoming holiday treats, from Buckeyes to chocolate-dipped Oreos and a new hot cocoa gift line. Plus, he teases community-focused initiatives and shares what success will look like in his first year of ownership.

Here's the link Daniel mentions to order the holiday guide and support Winans in Grandview.

And stay tuned for details about Winans’ upcoming grand re-opening, complete with free coffee for a year for the first 25 in line and plenty of chocolate samples to go around!

Here are 3 key takeaways:

Community-Driven Business: Daniel’s deep connection to Grandview shines through his commitment to making Winans more than a coffee shop—he’s partnering with local schools and organizations, making the shop a true community hub.
Embrace Change & Creativity: Although initially hesitant about franchising, Daniel found that the right franchise can support creative visions. His upcoming refresh of Winans includes cozier seating, new menu options, and a more vibrant atmosphere.
Continuous Learning: Even with years of food service experience, Daniel shares candidly about the surprises and “learning curves”—like the unpredictability of espresso machines! He’s focused on creating memorable customer experiences and building genuine relationships.

To run a successful business, you need resources, valuable connections, and community recognition. Business Inspires will provide you with the tools, resources, and examples to inspire you to create the business you envision.
