Starbucks is expanding its presence in Laos with a second outlet in five months, opening at Vientiane’s View Mall after putting up its first location at Parkson Laos.
The View Mall location provides immersive and visually striking coffee experience with a design inspired by the undersea world. The store’s black textured paint is accentuated by light blue and orange that contrast.
A tube ceiling extends from the entry to the bar and throughout the store, accentuating the bar as the store’s focal point that highlights coffee and relationships.
Starbucks Curbside, a pick-up service where consumers can buy coffee while driving and be directed to the closest store to pick it up from the curb, was debuted last week by the US coffee company in China.
