Starbucks

For the archives: why Starbucks is losing customers. Link to The New York Times.

From the linked article:

On Wednesday, Starbucks CEO, Mr. Niccol mentioned a few steps designed to win back customers. Starting with the introduction of the holiday menu in early November, Starbucks will no longer charge customers extra for nondairy milk, one of the most popular customizations. The company said it would also not increase prices for the 2025 fiscal year.

The company is also setting a goal of getting customers their orders in four minutes or less, Mr. Niccol said. Brewed coffee will now be delivered to customers at the register, and customers can customize their coffee themselves — adding milk and sweeteners — at the condiment stations that the company will be reinstalling. That should also alleviate some of the workload for baristas, Mr. Niccol said.
