Why is Starbucks closing 500 stores??

Question

and what will that do for the economy ?

Answer 1

I thought it was 650 or something like 8.5% of their stores. They're closing them because those stores aren't very profitable and in today's economy it doesn't make sense to keep them open.

Answer 2

joe nailed it.

Answer 3

Too many Stars and just a few bucks...
