    Not the stores, but the bottled and canned stuff that you can buy in the grocery stores

      Ooooooooh. So they don’t own starbucks. They just have a distribution agreement in place.

      Theoretically starbucks COULD do that themselves, but it would cost a lot of upfront investment which may not end up being profitable. So they just say to pepsi “here’s the formula, you bottle and ship it, and we’ll pay you a fee”.
