These excerpts taken from the SBUX 10-K filed Nov 20, 2009. General
Starbucks is the premier roaster and retailer of specialty
coffee in the world. Starbucks Corporation was formed in 1985
and its common stock trades on the NASDAQ Global Select Market
(“NASDAQ”) under the symbol “SBUX.”
Starbucks (together with its subsidiaries, “Starbucks”
or the “Company”) purchases and roasts high-quality
whole bean coffees and sells them, along with fresh, rich-brewed
coffees, Italian-style espresso beverages, cold blended
beverages, a variety of complementary food items, a selection of
premium teas, and beverage-related accessories and equipment,
primarily through Company-operated retail stores. Starbucks also
sells coffee and tea products and licenses its trademark through
other channels such as licensed retail stores and, through
certain of its licensees and equity investees, Starbucks
produces and sells a variety of
ready-to-drink
beverages. All channels outside the Company-operated retail
stores are collectively known as specialty operations.
The Company’s objective is to maintain Starbucks standing
as one of the most recognized and respected brands in the world.
To achieve this goal, the Company plans to continue disciplined
global expansion of its retail and licensed store base, to
introduce relevant new products in all its channels, and to
selectively develop new channels of distribution. The
Company’s Global Responsibility strategy and commitments
related to coffee and the communities it does business in, as
well as its focus on being an employer of choice, are also key
complements to its business strategies.
