While positioning the company through continuous growth within the Caribbean region, we are proud to add Green Star Partners to our strong network of licensees to take advantage of their undoubted capabilities within the market to create greater value, both for our customers as well as our partners (employees),” said Ricardo Rico, vice president and general manager of Starbucks for Latin America and the Caribbean.
