From a Seattle Storefront to a Global Coffee Culture Icon

Discover the rich and flavorful journey of Starbucks, the global coffee giant that redefined how the world consumes coffee. Originally founded by Jerry Baldwin, Gordon Bowker, and Zev Siegl, the company took a transformative turn when Howard Schultz visited Milan in 1983. Inspired by Italy’s bustling espresso bars, Schultz envisioned a café culture where coffee was more than a drink—it was an experience.

From the naming inspiration found on an old mining map to the siren logo rooted in Greek mythology, every detail of Starbucks was brewed with purpose. This book traces the company’s evolution from a small Seattle store to a global brand synonymous with premium coffee, innovation, and community.

A must-read for young entrepreneurs, brand enthusiasts, and lovers of business success stories.
