There are so many coffee shops in Korea. Many people often go coffee shops. They drink coffee, meet friends or study something in there. Also, there are too many coffee brands in Korea, for examples, Starbucks, Twosome, Ediya, Angel in us, etc. The each brands differ to menu, cafe’s atmosphere, marketing and price. So, people choose coffee shops for their taste. What’s the point that people choose specific coffee shop? So, I’ll compare three brand coffee shops that people usually go. It’s Starbucks, Twosome, Ediya. The standard of comparison are price, menu, each cafe’s atmosphere, and marketing.
First, compare to price, the Ediya cafe is lowest price. In contrast, the Starbucks and Twosome place coffee have expensive price. So, the customer who find inexpensive price visit the Ediya. Also, It differ to menu, too. The Starbucks focus on coffee. The customer can choose coffee bean, shots, drizzle and whipping cream, so they can drink coffee their taste. Beside, the Starbucks have not coffee, but also have many tumblers. So, the customer can buy tumblers. Next, The Twosome can choose coffee bean and shots, too. But it has small condition of selection. The twosome focus on desert, so they have many delicious cake and cookies. The Ediya’s menu is just coffee and juice. Instead of focusing something, The Ediya has inexpensive price so it’s the strong point than other coffee shop’s menu. That is, the side of price and menu, the Ediya has lowest price. And the Starbucks focus on coffee, and The Twosome focus on dessert. So the customer choose coffee shop their preference
Second, compare to cafe’s atmosphere. The Starbucks’s interior is for single person who study something or relax. It has space that people see the window, so people can see the outside, drink coffee and take a rest. Also it has high large table, too so people sit there and do something together. The Starbucks’ table usually use material lumber. It gives peaceful and comfortable feeling. Also, the peculiar point is that the Starbucks haven’t smoking room. It’s because the Starbucks makes customer smell coffee’s incense, so they haven’t smoking room. In contrast, the Twosome’s interior focus on small group. So, it has comfortable table and chair. Also it’s interior focus on modern style. The Twosome has modern style table and chair, too. Similarly, the Ediya focus on modern style, too. It has simple table and chair. But it’s too small space to near table. Maybe it’s because the Ediya want to many customer, for examples, it places to near University so they capture students who don’t have enough money. Like this the coffee shops have different cafe’s concept.
Third, the point that people choose coffee shop is customer service. It relates to membership. The each coffee shops have specific membership points. The Starbucks has too many promotions and memberships. They have Starbucks card, it has different design and launching every season. So People who want different card’s design and collect them buy every season. Also, the Starbucks executes too many promotion. For example, it has e-Frequency. If the customers buy 12 cups of coffees that include promotions beverage, the Starbucks give customers tumbler. Further, if the customers who join the Starbucks member buy a cups of coffee, they give star. The customer collect the stars, they enjoy favor to star’s number. Next, the twosome’s membership is relate CJ points. So, it combines other store and customer can collect point easily. And It differs to twosome shop, there are stamps card. So customer collect 10 stamps, it gives a free cup of coffee. Last, The Ediya has stamps card. It’s similar to Twosome stamps card, but it can use different Ediya store. So each coffee shops have different way that lead customers.
The Starbucks, Twosome place coffee, Ediya have different price, menu, cafe’s style and promotion. There are too many coffee shops have different ways, too. So the customer choose coffee shops to their preference. It’s on coffee taste, price or cafe’s style. The coffee shop are no more just drink coffee, it’s space that relax, take rest and give something to customer. So the people go coffee shops and choose coffee shops to their taste.
