Starbucks is considered to be the largest coffee company in the world, due to having $10.7billion revenues in 2010 and having 16,850 shops in 40 countries (Lepore 2011).

    From 'just another coffee shop' to 'the only genuine coffee shop to visit', it has come a long way. Its commitment to customer choice and hand-made Italian coffee, this unique proposition managed to set Costa apart from the competition, both emotionally and rationally, increasing brand awareness and average transaction values. Today Costa is the largest and fastest growing coffee shop chain in the UK. So while a lot may have changed since that first cup was savoured, their coffee certainly hasn't. They still slow-roast beans in exactly the same way, and even in the same roasters, as they did 40 years ago. They believe in “And as long as coffee lovers like it that way, we'll continue to do so”.…
