Nestlé to acquire Seattle’s Best Coffee from Starbucks
The coffee space is heating up. Nestlé announced earlier this month that it will acquire the Seattle's Best Coffee brand from Starbucks
Seattle’s Best Coffee – which generally offers a lower price point that Starbucks – will help Nestlé further develop its coffee ambitions in North America.
Seattle's Best Coffee's ‘approachable’ line of whole bean, roast and ground packaged coffee, and K-Cup pods are available in a variety of roasts and flavor profiles across both foodservice and grocery channels.
The brand will join Nestlé’s coffee portfolio which already includes Starbucks packaged coffees (distributed by the duo’s Global Coffee Alliance); Nescafé, Nespresso and Blue Bottle Coffee (acquired in 2017).
