This year, Starbucks will open stores in the states of Goiás, Ceará and Pernambuco, marking its presence in 11 states across Brazil.

Sao Paulo – Starbucks Brazil, through its local licensed operator, SouthRock, today announced an expansion to three new Brazilian regions in 2023. The stores will be constructed in Fortaleza (Ceará), Goiânia and Alexânia (Goiás), and Recife (Pernambuco). With its arrival in these locations, Starbucks Brazil is expected to create more than 140 direct jobs and the brand will mark its presence in 11 states across Brazil, including Bahia (Salvador), <a href="https://historias.starbucks.com/en-es/press/2022/starbucks-brazil-announces-expansion-to-bahia/">announced in late 2022</a> with a store opening planned for the first quarter of 2023.

"We are very excited to bring the Starbucks Experience to even more Brazilian customers and are confident that our stores will become meeting points for community members to connect with family and friends over coffee," said Claudia Malaguerra, Starbucks Brazil managing director. "These openings are undoubtedly a milestone for Starbucks in Brazil, continuing our commitment to expand our presence in the market, creating jobs for local communities and reaffirming our mission to inspire and nurture the human spirit, one person, one cup, and one neighborhood at a time while positively impacting the communities we serve," she added.

In Goiás, Starbucks first store opened on February 10, in the city of Alexânia, at Outlet Premium Brasília and, soon, another new store will open at Flamboyant mall (first floor) in the capital Goiânia. In Fortaleza the store will be constructed on the ground floor of the Iguatemi Bosque Fortaleza mall. &nbsp;In Recife, the brand is in local negotiations for the first store and will announce it soon. To further Starbucks mission and impact in the region, Starbucks Brazil is actively evaluating other potential locations for additional stores in the three cities.

The new stores will feature cozy, comfortable environments for customers to enjoy high-quality arabica coffees from Brazil and around the world, along with seasonal and year-round beverages and menu items prepared by passionate baristas and according to their preferences. Menu options range from Starbucks® Brazil Blend – an exclusive coffee made with 100% Brazilian beans from the regions of Minas Gerais, São Paulo, and Bahia – to products specifically created for Brazilian customers, such as Starbucks Brigadeiro Frappuccino® Blended Beverage and an exclusive recipe for the traditional pão de queijo, one of the region’s most popular bakery items.

Customers of the new stores will also have access to the Starbucks Rewards™ loyalty program, which offers exclusive benefits to its members. As one of the program perks, for every R$ 3.50 spent on Starbucks menu items and merchandise, Starbucks Rewards members will receive a star to collect and exchange for store items. All store orders, including beverage customizations, can be made using the Starbucks Brazil app.

POSITIVELY IMPACTING COMMUNITIES<s></s>

With the arrival of Starbucks in the states of Goiás, Pernambuco and Ceará, over 140 jobs will be created, many without the requirement of previous work experience. Additionally, Starbucks Brazil will open Starbucks Training Centers in all three new markets, where it will conduct training programs that cover barista certifications, service practices, operational routines, and education about the coffee industry, along with courses on menu quality and food safety.

To support Starbucks partners, the brand will also bring &nbsp;the <a href="https://historias.starbucks.com/en-es/press/2023/starbucks-promotes-4th-edition-of-i-am-project-in-celebration-of-brazils-national-trans-visibility-day/%22">“I Am" project</a> to the new states, which offers legal and emotional well-being support for transgender partners to amend their names and genders on their birth certificates. Since its launch in 2020, the project has transformed the lives of more than 70 people in Brazil, supporting partners in stores, corporate offices and other businesses operated by SouthRock in Brazil, as well as members of partner NGOs. &nbsp;The 2023 edition of the project marked a record number of partners registered from Brazilian States where Starbucks is currently present.

Starbucks Brazil &nbsp;also brings with it initiatives to give back to local communities, such as Caramel Day (a day in December when the net profit from the sale of Caramel drinks is donated to the Gol de Letra Foundation), Pride Month (throughout the month of June, Starbucks joins with partner NGOs to recognize the LGBTQIAP+ community through such initiatives as donating the net profit from sales of the Pride Frappuccino® Blended Beverage to applicable organizations) and Global Good Month (a global initiative held each April to encourage community service). In addition, Starbucks plans to connect with like-minded NGOs in the new states to further local engagement and community outreach work. Over the 16 years that the brand has been present in the market, Starbucks Brazil has worked with over 100 NGOs and institutions across several states, leaving a significant impact on the lives of partners and customers throughout the region.

STARBUCKS IN BRAZIL

Starbucks first store in Brazil opened in 2006 in the Morumbi mall, located in São Paulo, followed by the opening of another store in Rio de Janeiro in 2008. In 2018, the brand entered into a licensing agreement with SouthRock to operate Starbucks stores in Brazil, making SouthRock the local licensed operator of the brand marketwide.&nbsp;

In 2019, after 11 years working exclusively in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Starbucks expanded its presence in the country by opening its first stores in the South Region, located in Santa Catarina. In December 2020, the expansion continued and Starbucks began operations in Brasilia. In 2021, the brand entered three more markets, opening stores in Rio Grande do Sul, Minas Gerais and Paraná.

Starbucks is now present in seven Brazilian states (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Paraná, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasília-DF, and Minas Gerais), and has announced its arrival in the Northeast, starting in Bahia with the opening of its first store scheduled for March 2023.

The Starbucks Foundation and volunteers from Starbucks Peru joined Planet Water Foundation to build a water filtration tower at the Virgen de Chapi School in Lurin.

The project builds on a 12-year partnership between The Starbucks Foundation and Planet Water Foundation to deliver clean water to ten markets, impacting up to 1,800 children and members of vulnerable communities.

Lima - As part of Starbucks commitment to positively impact the communities it serves, Starbucks – operated by licensed business partner Delosi in Peru – and&nbsp;The Starbucks Foundation&nbsp;partnered with&nbsp;Planet Water Foundation&nbsp;to install&nbsp;an&nbsp;AquaTower&nbsp;water&nbsp;filtration system&nbsp;at the Virgen de Chapi School in Lurin, Lima Province. The event, held in December 2022, punctuated a year of significant volunteering and sustainability initiatives led by Starbucks Peru.

Planet Water Foundation is a nonprofit organization that strives to bring clean water to the world's most impoverished communities. Their water tower program has positively impacted ten markets in Asia Pacific and Latin America and the Caribbean, including Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam, and last year expanded to Guatemala, Peru and Colombia for the first time. In 2022, The Starbucks Foundation and Planet Water Foundation partnership has provided clean, safe drinking water to up to 21,600 children and members of vulnerable communities.

Peru’s National Institute of Statistics and Information pointed out in a report that between 7 and 8 million Peruvians still do not have access to basic water services, demonstrating a key need that the partnership aims to support. To address this, a group of Starbucks Peru volunteers visited Virgen de Chapi School in Lurin to install an AquaTower water filtration system, which will&nbsp;provide&nbsp;clean water to&nbsp;up to 1,800&nbsp;people a day. In addition, Starbucks Peru volunteers led hygiene education and handwashing activities with students to promote health and hygiene behaviors.

“Thanks to The Starbucks Foundation grant support and Starbucks partners engagement, our children and the members of each family in our locality will benefit from having access to drinking water, helping community members avoid many diseases caused by unclean water. I hope that more schools can receive this gift of clean water that is essential for the health of our children,” said Luis Cabrera, principal of Colegio Virgen de Chapi IE 7078.

The initiative, which received a record number of registrations this year, offers legal and psychological well-being support for transgender partners (employees) to amend their names and information on their birth certificates.

Sao Paulo – In support of National Trans Visibility Day, celebrated in Brazil on January 29, SouthRock – Starbucks licensed operator in the market – announced the fourth edition of its "I Am" Project.

The “I Am” Project offers free legal and psychological well-being support to transgender partners (employees) who wish to legally change their name and gender on their birth certificates. Since its start, the project has transformed the lives of over 70 people in Brazil, supporting Starbucks partners working in stores, corporate offices and other businesses operated by SouthRock in Brazil, as well as members of local nonprofit organizations.

<a>"</a>Starbucks is committed to building a warm and welcoming culture where all partners and customers feel they belong. Our partners are the heart and soul of Starbucks, and we continuously seek to create initiatives that have a positive impact on their lives. It is gratifying to offer the fourth edition of our 'I Am' Project, supporting the transgender community, and witness the expansion of the project to additional SouthRock brands, while also inspiring and encouraging other companies," said Claudia Malaguerra, Managing Director of Starbucks Brazil.

This year, in addition to offering the program’s services to current partners of Starbucks Brazil and brands operated by SouthRock, members of the nonprofit organization, Casa Florescer (São Paulo), can receive legal advice to begin the process of amending their names, with full support for legal and psychological well-being offered by SouthRock. In 2023, the program reached a record number of people, with 37 applicants enrolling in the program, representing both Starbucks and SouthRock partners and members of Casa Florescer.

"The year 2022 was fundamental to my empowerment as a trans woman,” shared Kylie, a partner and communications analyst at SouthRock who had her name changed in the 2022 edition of the “I Am” Project. “Having my name and gender amended was much more than fulfilling a dream; it was the officialization of who I AM. I believe this is one of the most important moments in the entire transition process because, in addition to legitimizing our identity, it avoids numerous social constraints. I hope more employers and organizations understand that this is an urgent demand from a community that needs to emerge from invisibility. This means respecting diversity and exercising inclusion in a real way. It took me 50 years to get my birth certificate and other identity documents changed. It's like I've waited half a century to be born. May this time be much shorter for other trans girls and boys – after all, life goes by very fast and we deserve to live it to its fullest," she concluded.

Support for the LGBTQIAP+ community

In every Starbucks store, customers who order a beverage have their name written on their cup, whatever it is, without question. This action inspired the launch of the "I Am" project in January 2020. With the permission of all program participants, the brand <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pw-WAnAgPQI" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">documented</a> the life-changing journey to provide the public with a view of the significant impact the “I Am” initiative has on its participants. The project, documented by VMLY&amp;R for Starbucks Brazil, won the Grand Prix at the <a href="https://www.canneslions.com/festival">2021 Cannes Lions Festival</a> - the largest and most prestigious advertising festival in the world – and was awarded gold in twocategories of the <a href="https://www.effie.org/">Effie Award</a> – marketing and advertising award held by the American Marketing Association -,in addition to receiving several other awards.

As an extension of the "I Am" Project in 2022, SouthRock led another initiative, this time focused on employability. The action, titled "I Am Working," turned Starbucks Stores into employment hubs where participants participated in job interviews and a training program developed for members of the transgender community interested in openings available at Starbucks and other brands operated by SouthRock in Brazil. The first round of the job interviews took place throughout April 2022 in São Paulo at the Starbucks store on Rua Haddock Lobo, which proudly displayed the transgender flag to welcome candidates. The "I Am Working" initiative recently won bronze at the Cannes Lions 2022.

Since 2018, Starbucks Brazil has worked with nonprofit organizations, including Casa 1 (SP) and Grupo Arco-Iris (RJ), that offer support and safe locations to support LGBTQIAP+ inclusion efforts through various actions. One example of Starbucks partnership with these efforts is its donation of net profits from the sale of Starbucks products – such as the Pride Frappuccino® and t-shirts sold during Pride Month – celebrated annually in June, to provide funding for people in vulnerable situations due to their sexual orientation and gender identity.

Starbucks Mexico began offering plant-based options to customers&nbsp; in 2006, with the introduction of soy beverages and, since then, has added four additional alternative milks to its menu, including almond, oat milk, coconut, and, most recently, <a href="https://historias.starbucks.com/en-es/press/2022/starbucks-mexico-introduces-two-new-plant-based-menu-options-made-with-notco-products/">NotMilk® which was introduced in August 2022.</a>

The overall well-being of customers is a focus for Starbucks globally and the brand strives to offer plant-based and regular menus that fit clients’ lifestyles and provide healthy and balanced options for a range of palates. Starbucks Mexico started communicating the nutritional value of beverages and food in 2014. That same year, the preparation of all drinks with light milk was announced, to reduce the caloric content by up to 31%.
