Did you know that Starbucks was named after the first mate in Herman Melville's novel 'Moby-Dick'? That's right! The founders, Jerry Baldwin, Zev Siegl, and Gordon Bowker, were inspired by the seafaring theme and the name just stuck. So next time you sip on your Starbucks beverage, remember that you're partaking in a seafaring adventure of coffee awesomeness!
Starbucks was founded in 1971 by three partners: English teacher Jerry Baldwin, history teacher Zev Siegl, and writer Gordon Bowker. The inspiration for the name Starbucks came from the classic novel Moby-Dick, written by Herman Melville. The partners wanted a name that evoked the romance of the high seas and the seafaring tradition of early coffee traders.
Starbucks began its expansion outside of Seattle in 1987 when businessman Howard Schultz joined the company. Schultz had a vision of creating a chain of coffeehouses that offered a unique experience. Under Schultz's leadership, Starbucks started opening stores in new cities such as Chicago and Vancouver, marking the beginning of its transformation from a regional brand to a global phenomenon.
In 1992, Starbucks introduced a new logo featuring a twin-tailed mermaid, also known as a siren. The siren represents seduction, allure, and the allure of coffee. The green color of the logo was chosen to evoke feelings of freshness and nature. This iconic logo has become synonymous with Starbucks and is instantly recognizable worldwide.
By 1994, Starbucks had expanded to over 400 stores across the United States. The company also made its first international move by opening a store in Tokyo, Japan. This marked the beginning of Starbucks' global expansion, which would see the brand reach over 30,000 stores in more than 80 countries by 2021.
