Coffee in the News (#)
„We highlight and summarise the best articles from the mainstream press.Summaries from August - September 2001 The 'invasion' of American-style coffee bars caused quite a stir in the English broadsheets. Guardian, 4 August 2001 In August the Guardian ran a feature by Joanna Blythman on the scathing reaction by some to the proliferation of Starbucks, referring to a website "where you can have a global gripe about the coffee chain you love to hate and give it a good kicking in the company of disgruntled independent café patrons. The article questions why Starbucks perseveres in what seems to be an oversubscribed market when it could open shops in Asia for a fraction of the cost. It then points out that coffee is the second fastest growing UK market after mobile phones, having expanded 55% between 1997 and 2000 with the prediction of a further 22% growth per year till 2003 (the presumed saturation year).“
