Classroom Application:
A Starbucks opens every nine hours in China. Since the coffee giant opened its first store
in China in 1999, it has launched 6,000 stores around the mainly tea-drinking nation and
plans to increase its number of stores to 9,000 by 2025. Competitors such as Luckin
Coffee and Hey Tea have attempted to outpace Starbucks’ success; however, they have
come up short. Although sales took a hit due to zero-Covid lockdowns, analysts are
confident the chain will bounce back with the strong fourth-quarter sales in 2022. How
did the Seattle-based coffee giant find such massive success in a country known for its
love of tea?
