Number of Starbucks stores worldwide 2022

There were 35,711 thousand Starbucks stores worldwide in 2022. This figure also included other segments owned by the coffee-chain such as Siren Retail. Starbucks units have grown almost every year over the past decade. The only drop was in 2009, most likely due to the global financial crisis. Global expansion has ultimately allowed the coffee-chain to almost double its number of locations over the past 10 years.

Where are Starbucks stores located?

When looking at Starbucks stores by country the most Starbucks stores were located in the U.S., the company’s home nation. In 2022, there were more than 15 thousand Starbucks locations in the U.S. alone. While the U.S. has the most stores, in recent years the company’s international presence has shown tremendous growth. As a result, in 2018, for the first time, there were more international Starbucks stores than in the U.S. – a gap which has widened considerably.

Will Starbucks do delivery?

Starbucks launched a pilot partnership with Uber Eats in late 2018, allowing them to deliver items from a selected delivery menu to consumers’ homes. The company also developed the Starbucks app for customers to pre-order and pay for items before pick-up. With the global revenue of the online food delivery market reaching 296 billion U.S. dollars in 2021, Starbucks along with many other companies has evolved to capitalize on this online market. This became even more important during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, where social distancing measures meant fewer people ordering in-store.
