When it comes to the "coffee price war," Liu Wenjuan, Co CEO of Starbucks China, said, "In the competitive environment of frequent promotional activities, we maintain a high degree of restraint and avoid price wars.

In the past two years, the coffee and tea beverage industry has become more competitive, and cross-border collaborations have become a "standard" for tea beverage brands to innovate and attract consumers.
