Although people everywhere seem to enjoy dinking coffee, they don’t all have the same coffee culture. In Europe for example, coffee shops are common paces for people to meet friends while they drink coffee. On the other hand, places like this were not as common in North America in the past.

Then the company opened coffee shops in other countries as well. Today, there are more than 16,000 Starbucks coffee shops all over the world.
However, that does not mean Starbucks has not had problems. In fact, many Starbucks stores have closed over the past few years, On the one hand, this is because there were too many coffee shops competing(竞争) for business in one small area. On the other hand, stores in some countries closed because the coffee culture there did not match with the comfortable environment offered by Starbucks.
