CCTV Reports Starbucks Prices Higher in China

Recently I read Nikola Nedev’s blog about Starbucks prices being higher in China than anywhere else in the world. Though Starbucks can easily pull this off because of its strong brand image and low competition, it is really unfair for it to do so. The company can probably face problems for doing this as they are discriminating against Chinese people and making them pay more. However, a company’s goal is to maximize its profits and by charging more in China, Starbucks is able to do so. Even though Starbucks is able to get away with this right now, they might not be able to later, when more people find out about this and possibly substitute Starbucks with another brand, causing the company to lose customers in the long run.
