Responsibility
Sustainability
Taking care of the environment is imperative to the future of coffee and coffee farmers, and to the world we live in.
Ethical sourcing
Coffee wouldn’t be possible without the farmers around the world who grow it. That’s why we work alongside them to support sustainable farming practices and their communities.

As a responsible brand that strives to cause minimal impact on the planet, aware of climate change, Starbucks makes systematic efforts to reduce waste going to landfill by 50% by 2030, as part of its global commitment to become resource positive by the end of the decade. Since 2009, customers of the chain enjoy a discount of -0,50 BGN if they order their drink in their own reusable cup, tumbler, or thermos. In 2019, the brand removed the supply of plastic straws from all its sites across Bulgaria and introduced a special model of lids for the cups that totally eliminated the need for straw.
Starbucks is also trying to motivate customers to cut down on single-use cups with a wide range of original tumblers and reusable cups available to buy. The reusable cups are one of the most popular items in Starbucks merchandising offerings.
From mid-January this year, the brand is moving to the next stage on its way to eliminating paper and plastic waste – adding a small charge for disposable plastic lined cups. All income from this fee will be donated to WWF Bulgaria to expand the network of protected areas in the country. National and natural parks, reserves, and natural landmarks, also known as protected areas, occupy only 5% of the territory of Bulgaria, although the country is in one of the first places in Europe in terms of rich and preserved nature.
