Starbucks New Product Line Essay

New Product Line
One of the recent innovations that we made is opening the Starbucks Evenings store line.

We know that BRICS is not an exemption, people love coffee all over the planet and we know for fact that those countries consume coffee as well. Below is the list of countries by coffee consumption per day (Worldatlas):
10 – Brazil: 4.8kg per capita (1.32 cups/day) – part of BRICS
9 – Belgium: 4.9 kg per capita (1.35 cups/day)
8 – Germany: 5.2 kg per capita (1.43
