Total sales: 4 billion cups of coffee (per year)
In the United States, for instance, 62 percent of the daily coffee consumption is purchased in a coffee outlet. Americans spent between one and five U.S. dollars on coffee per week. In the spring of 2016, 36.38 million people in the United States visited a coffeehouse or coffee bar for breakfast, lunch or dinner within a period of 30 days. Founded in Seattle, Washington (1971), the Starbucks that we know today was actually developed by Howard Schultz in 1987. The rapid increase in the sale of Starbucks’ coffees began in 2016 which at the same time brings the most revenue for this coffeehouse chain which is predicted to exceed 32 billion U.S. dollars in 2016. According to calculations, Starbucks sells about 4 billion cups of coffee every year (3,861,778,846 cups) which places its product on the 5th place on 16 most consumed products in the world ranking.
