Starbucks' annual orders using personal cups have been increasing every year, from 17.39 million in 2020 to 21.9 million in 2021, and 25.3 million last year.


A Starbucks representative stated, "We analyze that the increase in personal cup usage is due to consumers' heightened awareness of environmental protection," adding, "Moreover, Starbucks' support policies to establish a culture of using personal cups have also had an impact."



Meanwhile, Starbucks offers a 400 KRW discount or awards one Eco Star through the Starbucks application when customers use personal cups.
