In November the famous coffee chain store from the USA Starbucks will open its first store in the Bulgarian capital - the company announced today.
Starbucks Coffee Company will develop its business on Bulgarian territory in partnership with the Greek firm Marinopoulos Coffee Company. The operative activity in the stores will be executed by the subsidiary company Marinopoulos Coffee Company Bulgaria.
The manager of the Greek company claims: "For Starbucks, it is an honor to be present in a country with a rich coffee culture as Bulgaria". The firm's experience shows that when a new store is opened in a new market, the local coffee industry develops as well, stimulating other coffee chain stores.
Except for Bulgaria, Marinopoulos Coffee Company is working together with Starbucks for the opening and management of stores from the chain in Greece, Cyprus, Switzerland, Austria and Romania.
