About the Company

Starbucks

Runs coffeehouses and licenses its coffee brand

Starbucks runs coffeehouses around the world that serve espresso drinks, brewed coffee, tea, and food, and it roasts the arabica coffee its stores sell. It grew from a single Seattle shop selling beans into the world's largest coffeehouse chain, and it helped make Italian-style espresso drinks such as lattes an everyday habit in the United States. Customers order at the counter, at drive-throughs, or ahead through the Starbucks app, whose rewards program trades points for free drinks and food. The company earns money from cafés it operates itself and from fees paid by licensed stores in places such as airports and grocery stores. Starbucks was founded in 1971 and is based in Seattle.
