As I sat in Starbucks yesterday morning using their Internet due to our outage at home I started thinking. Gosh, this place is really just so great ( sorry for all you Sbux haters ). Not only is it successful in America, yet they can expand globally in over 60 countries and maintain their wonderful coffees, food, service, and pleasant atmospheres in each store. It's like a little slice of home that's nice to always have with me, as silly as it may sound. Starbucks is also very respective of the local cultures in these 60 some countries and their traditions and client preferences. So if you ask me...Well done Starbucks.
Of course you can't forget one other company who falls under the same category. Am I specifically supporting their food, healthiness, or anything of the sort? No. However, McDonald's is in almost double the amount of countries as Starbucks yet they too remain to have the same ol' greasy goodness Americans are used to all over this world. More often with really large locations with an entire desserts/coffee cafe included in the store. So if or when you need that cheeseburger and french fry fix and are pretty much anywhere in the world (except Tunisia!) head on over to good old McDonald's.
