Gary JohnstoneWho owns UK Coffee Shops ???
Feeling like you might wanna buy British???
Here's a quick skim of the internet to find out where our money goes ...
Starbucks - you guessed it. A publicly listed USA company.
Costa Coffee - a wholly owned subsidiary of Coca-Cola, which is a company from the USA, in case you were wondering.
Caffe Nero - private UK company with the main shareholders being UK and Luxembourg intermediary companies.
Pret a Manger - owned by JAB, a German company.
Blank Street - a private company from the USA.
Greggs - is a publicly listed UK company based in Newcastle.
Of course, supporting your local independent coffee shop is probably the way to go.
