In a statement to Global News, a spokesperson said that during a review of operations, “We identified coffeehouses where we’re unable to create the physical environment our customers and partners expect, or where we don’t see a path to financial performance, and these locations will be closed.”
At the end of the fiscal year, Starbucks Canada said it will operate almost 18,300 locations across the U.S. and Canada.
“In fiscal year 2026, we’ll grow the number of coffeehouses we operate as we continue to invest in our business,” the spokesperson said.
“Over the next 12 months, we also plan to uplift more than 1,000 locations to introduce greater texture, warmth, and layered design.”
Starbucks confirmed on Thursday that the company will be laying off around 900 non-retail employees.
