Riddle me this? Starbucks Coffee Bean prices
Why does a half pound (225 g) of Yunnan Coffee cost 85 RMB (12.71 USD) in China? Do we attribute it the Starbucks price bump? Probably not, because you can get twice as much beans for your buck at Starbucks stateside. Around 67 RMB (10 USD) for a full pound (453 g) thats twice as much coffee for a much lower price. And Yunnan Coffee is one of the least expensive worldwide. Just for perspective we offer a half pound of our Yunnan Hope coffee for 29 RMB (4.33 USD) and ours is considered on the "expensive" side because we work with the coffee growers that grow it, paying fair wages and donate part of the sales on top of that to planting more trees. Why is Starbuck's Yunnan coffee 3 times more expensive?
