Increasing Prices Of Its Products. Starbucks has been leveraging its consumer loyalty and lack of elasticity among its consumers by continuously passing on increases in costs, due to wages and coffee prices, to its customers. As a result, in the period between we have seen four price hikes on its products, two of which were in alone. In the financial year ended September , Starbucks was able to expand its margin by 80 bps to There is a very serious concern, however, about how long consumers decide to stick with Starbucks before choosing one of the many competing coffee shops if prices continue to increase at this pace.
However, the problem may not be as serious as one may think. The main attraction of a Starbucks store is its inviting and premium atmosphere. The company has become a popular place to have casual meetings related to work or even study while having coffee.
The coffee giant has, and continues to pull out all the stops, when it comes to establishing its brand presence and value.
One example is the introduction of new concept stores, such as the Reserve Roastery and Tasting Room stores. These concept stores aim to offer a highly customized and elevated experience, targeted at wealthy customers and coffee connoisseurs. The company is looking at potentially ten roasteries, offering different types of coffee experiences: pour-over, siphon, clover, specifically roasted reserve coffees on-site that you are able to buy from a scoop bar, and interactive experience with bars and baristas.
Furthermore, Starbucks has consistently seen its reward program grow, despite the change in structure. As a result, we believe that while there may be some loss of customers due to higher prices, it will be more than offset by optimal customer retention and increasing customer acquisitions. As mentioned previously, the increase in prices of end product is propelled due to higher cost of raw material and labor. Benefits and Perks Empowered to live life well.
