T0reat o ne5 entrants
Coee is popular among dierent tpes of people from dierent age groups, so coee retailers tend to appear regularl in the industr due to a lac# of barriers of entr. The primar barrier is competing against well;established brands and funding the opening of a store, but coee can be sold in small stores, or e!en through machines that re7uire little space. *ell;established brands dominate the
mar#et through ears of operation, as well has successful mar#eting eorts. (!en a brand such as :cHonalds can enter the industr and dominate b adding coee to their menu.
T0e (argaining o5er o suliers
Suppliers ha!e medium bargaining power since the usuall come from de!eloping countries and because of the !ast competition
between suppliers. The product is standardied, ma#ing dependenc on one supplier non;e'istent. There is also an increasing demand for eco;friendl coee, organic coee and gourmet specialt coee, increasing the selling price for coee. The bargaining power of
suppliers depends on the economic situation of the countr.
T0reat o su(stitute
:an products such as sodas and soft drin#s that contain caeine are in competition coee and tea. $s coee and tea are also
morning drin#s, be!erages consumed such as uices and smoothies as part of a balanced brea#fast can substitute the consumption of hot be!erages.
Bargaining o5er o (uyers
The buer power for Coee Bean and Tea Leaf customers is high as there are man other coee retailers to choose from, such as
Starbuc#s and Costa Coee, and since the prices of these retailers are uni!ersal, the customers face no opportunit cost in price when choosing one coee retailer o!er the other. Thus, product
dierentiation is #e to inuence the customers" decisions.
Ri&alry a'ong existing co'etitors
The ri!alr among e'isting competitors is high. Competitors include Starbuc#s, :cHonald"s, Burger <ing, Hun#in Honuts, Costa Coee and independent coee retailers. These coee retailers use !alue added ser!ices to di!ersif their stores o!er one another, such as coee blending, mar#et identi&cation and training. These can gain a brand customer loalt, an e'tremel important factor that sets aside mar#et leaders from one another.

.olitical the most conicti!e political problem for coeeIs industr is the fair trade commerce of the coee bean. This means that there e'ist regulations that control the price of raw material in order not to disfa!or de!eloping countries, the general suppliers of raw
materials such as coee beans.
Econo'ic US$ is ran#ed 26th in the consumption of coee in the
world according to www.muinteresante.com, and recent trends in the US show an increase in awareness for organic coee from fair trade schemes. This means customers are willing to pa e'tra if the countries that suppl the maor brands with raw materials are not discriminated.
Social The United States is a bus societ where time is mone, and so fast ser!ices, such as Jta#e awa coee", are increasing in popularit for the wor#ing $merican. Coee is also a part of Latin $merican cultures, which is important as there is a large
demographic of Latin $mericans li!ing in the US.
Tec0nology To compete in the US, coee retailers must position themsel!es well in the industr through the best forms of
communications, such as online promotions through social networ#s and commercials in the media. $s well as this, infrastructure in the US is continuousl de!eloping. This places a strong emphasis on store locations. %rime locations include within pro'imit of public transport stations and on route between suburban and urban areas for dail wor# commuters.
En&iron'ental To oer an organic coee and to be ecofriendl is important in US$, and so Coee Bean and Tea Leaf must be
considerate about how the reccle their materials, as well as using reccled materials in store. The origin of the coee the oer to costumers is also !ital to customer satisfaction.
Legal 0n 2661 and 266=, maor changes were made regarding the global agreements regulating the prices of coee and defending fair trade. These changes protect the consumer from being o!ercharged for coee products. $part from the laws that regulate these #ind of issues, there are nonpro&t organiations that gi!es their support to the coee bean suppliers, helping them to get the most pro&t the can and not to be discriminated. These organiations tend to put pressure on coee retailers to abide to fair trade agreements.
