  „Common in the United States, Starbucks has become the McDonalds of the coffee world; if you are in most major American airports or cities, rest assured, you are never more than 15 minutes from the nearest Starbucks. Starting as an obscure coffee shop in Seattle in the early 1970s, Starbucks has grown so much that they now own significant portions of New York, Chicago, Boston, San Francisco , and almost all of Seattle .“

  „This year, for example, Starbucks will buy a million pounds of Fair Trade coffee, less than 1% of the company's total purchases. For its part, Starbucks resents being picked on. "If you were really sincere, for example, about doing something about GMOs in food, you wouldn't protest in front of Starbucks," says Mr Smith. "You would go to your supermarket, where 70% or more has GMO content, and try to make your case - because that could make a difference."

  „- A lot of mom and pops run less than desirable businesses, hence the popularity of McDonalds. When I travel I go to Starbucks (or another recognizable coffee place) because I am honestly afraid of the quality at most mom and pops.“

  „JAPAN - Since it opened its first store in Tokyo’s Ginza district in 1996, Starbucks has opened 467 stores in Japan. Last year, Howard Schultz, chairman of the Starbucks group, set out plans for growth in the country with a target of 1,000 stores by 2007. But in May, Starbucks' Japanese business, a joint venture with the Sazaby Inc., announced an annual loss of $3.9 million on revenues of $467 million, according to Business Week. Starbucks seems to have expanded at a rate that could not be justified by sales or profits.“
