Why did Starbucks remove products from its menu?
According to the company, the decision is part of a fundamental strategy shift aimed at simplifying their offerings, reducing customer wait times, and improving the overall experience. Starbucks believes that a more streamlined selection will help them be more responsive and better aligned with customer preferences. The recently discontinued drinks were categorized as “less popular” because they were either not commonly purchased, complicated to make, or too similar to other menu items.
