Starbucks <a href=\"https:\/\/www.esgtoday.com\/starbucks-advances-plans-to-eliminate-single-use-cups\/\">announced a series of plans in 2022<\/a> to provide its customers globally with reusable cup options, with an aim to enable customers in the U.S. and Canada to use personal reusable cups for every visit, including caf\u00e9, drive-thru and mobile order and pay, and has set a 2025 goal for customers globally to have access to a reusable cup option for every visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Michael Kobori, Starbucks Chief Sustainability Officer, said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cAt Starbucks, we envision a future where every beverage can be served in a reusable cup. Offering customers more options to use a personal cup when they visit Starbucks marks tangible progress towards the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the new program, customers can place orders for all drinks and sizes in their personal cups, including all standard sizes and hot, iced, and blended beverages, with baristas using a new, custom beverage craft smallware with standardized lines partners need for measurements. At the drive-thru, customers can let the barista know that they want to use their reusable cup, and the barista will collect and use the cup with a contactless vessel, while on the app, a \u201cPersonal Cup\u201d selection will be available under the \u201cCustomization\u201d button when ordering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kobori added:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cWe know our customers are passionate about the planet, and now, they can join us in our efforts to give more than we take, no matter how they order.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote><span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starbucks announced today a new program enabling customers to use personal, reusable cups at all company-operated and participating licensed stores in the U.S. and Canada, including for drive-thru purchases and mobile orders made through the Starbucks app. According to Starbucks, the announcement makes the company the first U.S. national coffee retailer to accept reusable cups [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":14865,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,12],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8.1 -
