Who 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.
