A better cup for all
Learn more about our sustainable packaging initiatives and goals.
Starbucks is the first and only national coffeehouse in Canada to offer customers the option to use their clean personal cup for every visit at company-owned stores, including drive-thru and when they make a mobile order. See how it works and learn more about our sustainable packaging initiatives and goals.
Towards a more sustainable cup
We set a bold aspiration to become resource positive and are committed to reducing our landfill waste by 50% by 2030. Additionally, we’ve set an ambitious goal for our cups to be 100% compostable, recyclable, or reusable; sourced from 50% recycled materials; and made using 50% less virgin fossil fuel derived sources by 2030.
Reusable revolution
tarbucks has been championing reusable cup options for over 30 years and continues to provide customers with a 10 cent discount when they bring in a clean, reusable cup for beverage orders. We continue to innovate to make it easier for customers to use reusable cups and help reduce cup waste sent to landfills.
Starbucks Becomes First National Coffee Retailer to Accept Reusable Cups for Drive-thru and Mobile Orders
In addition, Starbucks supports sustainable packaging policies that:
- Help reduce waste sent to landfills by supporting improved recycling and organics diversion
- Help accelerate reuse as a key component of the circular economy
- Reduce complexity and promote circularity by setting globally harmonized definitions and standards
*Some of the initiatives mentioned above are in development and expected to launch by the end of 2024.
