Starbucks uses a premium pricing strategy to distinguish its brand from competitors. Instead of competing with more affordable chains, Starbucks increases its prices to reinforce the premium perception of its brand. This strategy works because Starbucks' most loyal customers are not price sensitive. Therefore, even a slight increase in price can have a significant positive impact on the company's margins without affecting demand.
