美心咖啡

以後要體驗真正的星巴克味道,最就近的恐怕也要返大陸。這間咖啡連鎖店與合作伙伴美心協議,重組合作安排,在廣東、西川以及河北等六個省的二百五十間分店,將由星巴克全權擁有。至於,香港的一百一十間店,將由美心全面控制。快餐店、飯堂、酒樓、月餅、麪包、生日蛋糕已經要吃美心的,現在連美式咖啡那僅有小趣味,也被抹煞了。

A Crazy Dude 說...

HI,
Do you think they will be able to keep starbucks brand in HK?

茶怪 說...

Howard Schultz is a visionary man who personally invented the unique experience offered at each of the shops. And such experience keeps evolving over times. Now, Maxim's takes over and cut Hong Kong off the attachment to the global chain. Maybe, it can keep up with the food and service quality. After all, it has operated the local shops for ten years or on. But for sure, the disconnection will mean the Hong Kong shops will no longer be part of the on-going global evolution, which I find quite interesting.

In short, they will keep the brand name, but probably not the goodwill.
