4. Starbucks expands delivery
After an initial test in Miami, the Seattle-based coffee company is expanding its delivery service to Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and Washington, D.C., in the coming weeks.
The delivery service is managed through a partnership with Uber Eats, and Starbucks plans to launch the service in 25% of company-operated stores. Delivery has been available in 2,000 Chinese stores since the end of 2018, and the company is launching another delivery test in London.
