Your local Starbucks could soon look very different
- Starbucks plans to renovate approximately 1,000 of its stores by the end of 2026, aiming to create a more welcoming and cosy space for customers.
- This initiative is part of the coffee chain's strategy to refocus on its heritage as a community gathering place, emphasising a 'richly sensorial' experience.
- Some locations in New York City and South Carolina have already undergone upgrades, with further renovations scheduled for the coming years.
- While the renovated stores will not all look identical, they will incorporate many similar features designed to enhance the customer experience.
- The company reports that these new designs have led to customers staying longer and visiting more frequently, which could help improve Starbucks' recent financial performance.
