Our employees, who we call partners, are at the heart of the Starbucks Experience. We believe in treating our partners with respect and dignity. Starbucks is committed to doing business responsibly and conducting ourselves in ways that earn the trust and respect of our customers, partners and neighbors.

Our story began in 1971. Back then we were a roaster and retailer of whole bean and ground coffee, tea and spices with a single store in Seattle’s Pike Place Market.

Today, we are privileged to connect with millions of customers every day with exceptional products in nearly 18,000 retail stores in 62 countries.

Our brands include Teavana, Tazo, Seattle’s Best Coffee, Evolution Fresh and La Boulange.
