Starbucks to open innovation hub in Shenzhen, China
Aug 2023

Starbucks is set to inaugurate an Innovation and Technology Hub (ITH) in Shenzhen come September 2023, aiming to expedite the digital transformation of its retail endeavors and omnichannel operations in China. The American coffee giant, renowned for its presence with 6,500 establishments throughout China, is embarking on a comprehensive overhaul of its digital innovation strategy, commencing with an initial investment of RMB1.5 billion (equivalent to $207 million) in this facility. Starbucks has asserted that this hub will be instrumental in streamlining and automating store operations, fostering further digitization within its supply chain, and enhancing personalized customer interactions. The upgraded data infrastructure is poised to propel Starbucks' expansion in China as it aspires to attain a network of 9,000 outlets by 2025, according to a press statement from the Seattle-based coffee chain. Starbucks China's CEO, Belinda Wong, expressed enthusiasm about the prospect, citing Shenzhen as a thriving hub for digital innovation in China and an early pioneer in the Greater Bay Area's development. Wong highlighted the company's eagerness to collaborate with local tech talent and entrepreneurs who share their vision of harnessing technology for fostering meaningful human connections. It is noteworthy that China ranks as Starbucks' second-largest market in terms of outlets, trailing only behind the United States, where the brand operates an extensive network exceeding 16,100 stores.

Starbucks operating chief to depart as company eliminates role under ‘reinvention’
Aug 2022

John Culver, who has been an integral part of Starbucks for two decades, is bidding farewell to the company as it undergoes a restructuring that involves the elimination of his current role. This development unfolds amidst a broader reorganization within Starbucks' executive team. Earlier this year, former CEO Kevin Johnson retired, prompting Howard Schultz to reassume leadership as interim CEO while the search for a permanent successor continues. Commencing on October 3, Culver will transition from his present position to take on the role of an executive advisor until his departure from the company at year-end. Starbucks has announced its decision to remove the position of Chief Operating Officer, with many of Culver's direct reports coming under the oversight of Schultz. Meanwhile, Frank Britt, who currently serves as the company's Chief Strategy and Transformation Officer, will assume responsibility for the remaining areas, including the global supply chain and technology divisions.

Starbucks (SBUX) Q3 2023 Earnings Call Highlights

August 1, 2023

Executives in Attendance
Tiffany Willis -- Vice President, Investor Relations
Laxman Narasimhan -- Chief Executive Officer
Rachel Ruggeri -- Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer


Comments from Laxman Narasimhan -- Chief Executive Officer:

“To start, our strong third quarter results point to all-around momentum in the business. This quarter, we grew consolidated revenue by 12%, up 14% when excluding more than a 1% impact in foreign currency translation to a record $9.2 billion.”

“Importantly, earnings growth of 19% outpaced revenue growth with margin expanding by 50 basis points to 17.4%. Our strong performance reflects the strengthened foundation of our business, resulting from the significant progress we are making against our reinvention plan. Since stepping into the role, I have now traveled to every region, working directly with partners. I left each interaction impressed by the differentiated global appeal of the Starbucks brand powered by innovation and anchored in our unique ability to deliver human connection.”

“These experiences give me great confidence in the significant growth and margin opportunities in front of us, positioning us well to strengthen the brand and create outsized long-term shareholder value. It was this time last year when Howard and the team identified the must-win opportunities and investments for our foundational reinvention plan. While Rachel will walk you through detailed results, I will now outline the momentum we have from the quarter in five key priority areas while pointing out where we see further headroom. Our first priority, we will elevate the brand by running great stores.”

“This comes to life in the strengthened execution in North America. Our North America team delivered record revenue in the quarter, with a growth of 11% underpinned by 7% comparable same-store sales growth, leading to the highest average weekly sales in our history. Our ticket growth was driven by pricing, customization, and food attach. Additionally, we continue to see improvements in items sold per labor hour.”
