Abstract

This study aims to highlight the main elements associated with the Starbucks brand from several perspectives (benefits, attributes, attitudes). Through a qualitative research based on a semistructured interview that also includes questions related to the ZMET technique, it is intended to obtain a reflection of the Starbucks brand from the consumer's mind materialized in the realization of a conceptual map.
