Keynote 2009 demographic analysis
• Starbucks is most popular among the 35-44 age bracket, while Costa’s popularity peaks among 25-44-year-olds, reflecting the fact that both these age groups are keen coffee purchasers and enjoy it both as a drink and a means to catch up with friends. Starbucks also attracts a particularly strong following among the 15-19 age band.
• Key analysis: The particularly youthful appeal of Starbucks suggests that the company could try to engage more with younger consumers at certain times of the day in terms of running special price-deal promotions aimed at this age group. Other ideas which could help Starbuck appeal to this group also includes offering added-value features such as making sure fashionable music magazines are available to read in store, or provide facilities to charge iPods or even download music.
