CNN article

I’m sure more will follow. When you attack Christians, espouse SJW nonsense, etc; you will lose customers! They appeal to SJW liberals who most of the time can’t afford their overpriced coffee and attacked the middle class people with money to spend at their stores.

Looks like Dunkin Donuts and others will be taking their business then

The affected stores are located in mostly urban areas that are densely populated with Starbucks locations.

There could be other factors.

The smell of urine, feces, and body odor is not a huge selling point.

there are probably other factors. I doubt conservatives who boycott coffee shops make up the bulk of their business to begin with.

Does America have too many Starbucks? The coffee giant will shut down 150 of its worst-performing stores next year, CNN reports, most of them located in urban areas that are already saturated with Starbucks locations.



i didn't know this

no, they are definitely closing stores after the backlash from their red cup attack on Christmas.

I saw another article that Starbucks said it was because that they raised the minimum wage at their stores

On West Gray in Houston, there are three Starbucks literally within a stones throw of each other. Two across the street from one another and another in Barnes and Noble which shares a parking lot with one Starbucks.

It’s kind of ridiculous.

The stupid yet amazing thing is that they’ve found that having stores that close together don’t cannibalize each other’s sales.

The idea seems to be that the amount of traffic being high enough makes people say “frick it” and move on if it is a pain to cross. Having stores on each side means people will be more likely to go into the store and order.

I generally don't like their SJW Corporate mentality, but I don't patron Starbucks because their coffee is garbage. Bitter and nasty swill that I wouldn't pay $.05 for, let alone $5.00.

Makes sense. They will fit in perfectly with those commies.
