Starbucks evaluates different factors like neighborhood income, traffic per day, proximity to other businesses, availability of parking, crime rates in the region, consumer behavior, economic conditions, local business practices, etc. while setting up a store.

Company Operated stores 

Starbuck’s retail objective is to be a leader in the brand of coffee and tea in each of its target markets by retailing the finest quality tea, coffee, and other products along with complementary foods. It aims in providing a unique Starbucks Experience by providing superior customer service in clean and well-maintained stores. This helps them in building a high degree of customer loyalty. All this is done with the view to maintain as much control over its customer experience by operating most of its stores.

Starbucks generated a total of $667 billion in Q2 2021 of which the company-operated stores contributed $565 billion. Also, there have been 19% year-over-year growth in revenue earned by company-operated stores from Q2 2020.

In Q2 2020, Starbucks had 16,188 company-operated stores. By the end of Q2 2021, 468 new stores were opened which lead to a total of 16,656 company-operated stores.

The United States has the highest number of company-operated stores that is 8857 stores followed by China with 4973 stores in Q2 2021. 

Licensed stores

Starbucks does not offer franchises instead one can operate a licensed store of Starbucks. In such an arrangement the individual is not the owner of the outlet. This allows Starbucks to exercise greater control over the working of the outlet. In this method, the individual who wants to obtain the license will have to select a prominent location where there is a high footfall and then through the company’s website apply for the license. Once Starbucks is satisfied with the individual’s capability to run the store, the license will be given along with products and necessary training to individual and staff members.

Entering into licensing arrangements enables Starbucks to operate in locations that are otherwise are not easily accessible like airports, small colleges, grocery chains, and large universities.

Licensed Stores contributed 10% of revenue in Q2 2021 amounting to $595 million. However, there have been adverse year-over-year growth of -14% from Q2 2020 this is primarily due to lower product and equipment sales and royalty revenues from the licensees.

In Q2 2020, Starbucks had 15,862 Licensed Stores. By the end of Q2 2021, 425 new stores were opened which lead to a total of 16,287 licensed stores.

The United States has the highest number of Licensed Stores followed by China and South Korea.
