Starbucks Argentina Opens First Store in Mar del Plata

Located at Avenida Independencia 2993, the opening of this new store brings the Starbucks Experience to even more cities and coffee fans in Argentina. This milestone marks the 134th store in the market and reaffirms plans to continue expanding to new corners of Argentina in 2025. 

Mar del Plata, Argentina - Starbucks Argentina, operated by authorized local business partner Alsea, announced the arrival of its first store in Mar del Plata on the coast of the province of Buenos Aires, as part of its ongoing expansion plans in the market. The new connection space will feature a unique and welcoming design and will be operational starting December 21, 2025.

The store design is intended to enhance the human connection created with a cup of coffee. The new location features a space based  in local brick architecture that will provide a warm and welcoming encounter for customers to enjoy high-quality Arabica coffee and artisanal beverages. The new store is designed to receive about 100 customers.

The murals were done by local artist Dana Alessi, who was inspired by the coasts where the store is located. The sea, waves and nature of Mar del Plata are the protagonists of a design full of colors from the area that invites customers to enjoy their favorite drink in a cozy space.
