Starbucks stores: U.S. and international 2005 to 2019

How many Starbucks are there in the world?

World-famous coffeehouse chain, Starbucks, accounted for 31,256 stores worldwide in 2019 – a figure that has almost doubled in the last decade. There were less international stores than those located in the company's home nation of the U.S. – these figures amounted to 15,041 and 13,189, respectively.

A global success story

Out of Starbucks' U.S. based stores, over eight and a half thousand are company-operated, while the remainder are licensed. The Seattle-based company’s worldwide expansion has made it one of the most successful and well-known coffeehouse chains in history. Its store count isn’t the only thing that has grown over the years, so has the revenue. Starbucks recorded its highest ever revenue in 2019, having generated over 26 and a half billion U.S. dollars.

Most profitable product types

The company’s central product being coffee, it comes as no surprise that the sale of beverages has been the number one source of revenue for Starbucks over the last decade. However, the coffeehouse chain also offers a broader range of beverages, including teas, hot chocolates, smoothies and iced drinks. Food sales have typically been the second largest contributor to Starbucks’ revenue in recent years.
