Starbucks Stock News

Most of the single-use, plastic cold beverage cups placed in recycling bins at Starbucks stores ended up in landfills or incinerators, Vermont-based Beyond Plastics said Monday.

Starbucks is closing stores for the second September in a row, and this time it's not about weak sales.

Last week, Starbucks Coffee Company announced it would close around 250 stores in North America. That's a cull of 1% of its roughly 18,000 locations in the region.

Starbucks is getting ready to shut down dozens of California coffee shops, with 64 locations across the state apparently headed for the chopping block. The closures stretch from Santa Rosa to San Diego, hitting the Bay Area, Sacramento, the Central Coast, Los Angeles, Orange County, the Inland Empire and beyond.

A beloved Starbucks in Burbank is set to close on after nearly 30 years in business. The location, next to Bob's Big Boy on Riverside Drive, will serve its final coffee Saturday before closing up shop for good at 9:30 p.m.

Starbucks Coffee Company announced today that it will close approximately 250 North American stores later this week.

The locations targeted either aren't delivering acceptable financial results or can't provide the kind of experience that Starbucks wants for customers and employees.

Some Americans might soon have to drive a bit further to get their favorite coffee, as Starbucks is closing hundreds of stores.
