Starbucks Coffee Company (NASDAQ: SBUX) today announced the
latest expansion of Starbucks® Delivers to five new U.S. markets,
Atlanta, Denver, Phoenix, Philadelphia, and New Jersey, as well as
further expansion in the New York Metro. The delivery program,
which initially launched as a pilot in partnership with Uber Eats
in late 2018, is now available in a total of 16 major U.S. markets
and will reach national availability in early 2020.
“Following our recent commitment to make delivery available
nationwide in 2020, we are excited to bring Starbucks Delivers to
five more major U.S. markets,” said Roz Brewer, group president and
chief operating officer for Starbucks. “The expansion of Starbucks
Delivers is part of our continuous effort to enhance the retail
experience and provide customers another convenient option to enjoy
Starbucks wherever they are.”
Through its partnership with Uber Eats, Starbucks leverages the
expertise of the largest global delivery service outside of China.
This service extends potential engagement to new customers and
those who currently include Starbucks as part of their morning or
afternoon routines, providing the ultimate Starbucks convenience.
Through the Uber Eats platform, customers can track progress of
their order and location of their Uber courier. With approximately
95% of core items available from the Starbucks menu, customers will

programs in more than 15 global markets, including Canada, Chile,
China, Colombia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico,
Singapore, the U.K., and Vietnam. Starbucks has made several
