Starbucks flagship Opens at the V&A<\/h4>\n

The exquisite brand-new caf\u00e9 within the upmarket Victoria Wharf Shopping Centre reflects the importance Starbucks places on store design to enhance the coffee experience. Adrian Maizey, CEO of Rand Capital Coffee, the licensee of Starbucks in South Africa and a born and bred South African, says, \u201cOur Starbucks team and designers were wholly inspired by the elegant surroundings and created elements that will evoke customers\u2019 senses \u2013 with ingredients and products to touch, fresh and fabulous aromas, delicious tastes, and beautiful colours, sights and sounds of the environment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Starbucks opens 8 New Stores<\/h4>\n

Starbucks V&A Waterfront is the sixth of eight Starbucks stores to open in Cape Town, Stellenbosch and Gauteng in just four weeks. The next stores that will open by mid-December are in Cape Town at Camps Bay and in Stellenbosch. These follow recent store openings in Canal Walk, Cavendish Square and Tyger Valley Shopping Centre in Cape Town, within the Checkers FreshX in Rosebank Mall in Johannesburg and Castle Gate Lifestyle Centre in Pretoria. These new additions bring the total number of Starbucks stores in South Africa to 24 in Gauteng, the Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal.<\/span><\/p>\n

The new stores in South Africa have added many new direct and indirect jobs to the local economy \u2013 and will continue contributing to job creation as the company\u2019s expansion drive continues.<\/span><\/p>\n

Maizey notes that this grand rollout of Starbucks caf\u00e9s is extending the accessibility of the iconic Starbucks experience to a far wider audience of South Africans and visitors to the country. <\/span><\/p>\n
