So, what year did Starbucks open in Australia? They began in the year 2000 however they had no idea that Australia was going to prove to be one of the toughest markets to break into for the coffee icon.

Starbucks whilst retreating in the Australian market, have now consolidated and found more of a marketplace that works in tourist visiting regions. They are looking at slowly increasing their footprint in Australia. Starbucks don’t appear to be currently looking for new Franchise owners, however once we hear they are we will update this information
