Starbucks Coffee

It seems there is a new Starbucks popping up on every corner in every neighborhood. How can you blame them, we line up for the caffeine infused lattes and chilled coffee drinks.

Do They Franchise?

Many will be disappionted to learn that Starbucks does NOT franchise. :(

In Howard's book, "Pour Your Heart Into It" he talks about how Starbucks, also commonly mispelled as Starbucs, prefers to maintain control of its product, image and growth. So, Starbucks decided to keep their coffee business within the company and not sell any Starbucks coffee franchise.

However there are some other great coffee franchises that are giving Starbucks a run for their money.
