Faygo was founded in Detroit on November 4, 1907 as Feigenson Brothers Bottling Works by Russian immigrants Ben and Perry Feigenson.

Faygo is credited with the spreading of the word "pop" instead of "soda" to mean soft drink in the Midwest. Faygo pop is manufactured in a myriad of flavors.

Faygo Beverages, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of the National Beverage, which also owns Shasta. Many Faygo brand flavors are shared with Shasta brands, for example:
