Starbucks coffee link for Beatles Story museum

The Beatles Story at the Albert Dock

FIRST Sir Paul McCartney signed to the coffee shop Starbucks new record label.

Now Starbucks is moving in to Liverpool’s tourist attraction, The Beatles Story.

The Starbucks store will cover 2,500 square foot of the building devoted to the history of the Beatles.

The coffee shop will include Beatles memor- abilia and decorated with 1960s artwork. It will employ between ten and 15 people.

Under the agreement between the attraction and Starbucks, the coffee store will be staffed and managed by the Beatles Story employees.

Jerry Goldman, director of the Beatles Story, is delighted with the deal, pointing out that it was recognised as Liverpool’s top visitor attraction.

“We are thrilled that Starbucks as our partner will be offering world class facilities to the hundreds of thousands of customers who visit us each year from all over the globe.”

Equally welcoming of the deal was Rupert Lawrie, director of business alliances for the Starbucks Coffee Company.

“With Paul McCartney already signed to the Starbucks record label, this feels like a natural place for us to be,” he said. “We always look to ensure our stores reflect their surroundings which makes the theming of this store really exciting.”
