Starbucks Closing its Doors Across America

Starbucks will be closing its coffee doors on Tuesday but its caffeine dependent clientele can relax it will only be for three hours as a refresher course for the company’s baristas is taught.

The 7,100 Starbucks across America will be shut down at 5:30 p.m. local time as part of a refocusing plan launched by CEO Howard Schultz.

According to Schultz the aim of the refresher course is to re-energize its 135,000 employees and ensure they provide customers with the best coffee experience available. The focus will be on the preparation of making espresso.

Starbucks has seen their growth challenged by aggressive campaigns from Dunkin’ Donuts as well as McDonalds.
