Starbucks vs. Caribou

       One of Starbucks biggest competitors is Caribou Coffee, both are popular coffee brands and compete

against each other. Although Starbucks is makes more money, has more customers, and is worth more in

general Caribou still continues to compete. When both of the companies are competeing for the best prices,

best drinks, and best food more money is brought in helping the economy. Back in 2006 Caribou lost to

Starbucks going down one percent and Starbucks going up seven percent. Starbucks total was 21.5 percent

and Caribou had 17.5 percent. Starbucks could actually buy Caribou, but then there wouldn't be as much

coimpetition.
