Good news for Kuching but don't be fooled into thinking that Starbucks is doing well as a whole.

Eight years after it began selling its espressos and frappucinos in Australia, the US giant has succumbed to powerful financial and cultural pressures and has closed 61 of its 85 shops across the country.

In July, Starbucks saw its first quarterly net loss in more than 15 years - blaming costs linked to closing about 600 of its underperforming stores.

The Seattle-based firm lost $6.7m in the three months to 29 June, compared with a $158.3m profit a year earlier.

Starbucks also said it would close more stores than it would open next year.

It has been struggling in the US as consumers have cut back their spending on expensive coffee. Rising dairy prices have also raised costs.

good or bad, hard to say la, not open yet. depends on their ambience & surrounding. if have a good crowd, many people will hang out there.
