Starbucks Introduces New Inclusive Store Framework to Enhance Customer Experience

Starbucks, the renowned coffeehouse chain, is embarking on a major revamp of its U.S. store portfolio with an innovative and inclusive framework. This new design is specifically aimed at helping customers, particularly those with disabilities, to communicate and navigate the stores with greater ease. The company recently unveiled its first revamped store in Washington, D.C., with plans to replicate this model across all future new and renovated stores. The ultimate goal is to expand Starbucks' U.S. store footprint to more than 16,300 locations by fiscal year 2024.
