International Expansion of Starbucks under the Background of Global Tourism DevelopmentInternational Expansion of Starbucks under the Background of Global Tourism Development
Abstract
In 1995, with the rapid development of tourism industry, Starbucks began to adjust its business strategy to exploring foreign opportunities. To fulfil this objective, it used many strategies, such as two main business strategies: license and joint venture; HR strategy: maintaining quality workforce; operations strategy: multiple channels of distribution and design strategy. During the process of its international expansion, it met several troubles such as stiff competition from well-established existing players; market saturation and culture challenge, and also took corresponding measures to overcome those difficulties. To pursuit success in the foreign markets, it is very important to export exactly the unique nature of shopping at Starbucks, like its unique corporate culture, coffee services, exclusive taste, etc. Then challenges Starbucks may meet for its further expansion into a specific country—China is proposed.
