Starbucks

Starbucks Coffee Company announced new leaders for two key positions. Starbucks Canada president Annie Young-Scrivner has been named executive vice president and president, Teavana. Retail operations executive Rossann Williams has been appointed executive vice president and president, Starbucks Canada. Teavana founder and CEO Andy Mack, having helped with the integration of Teavana with Starbucks, has decided to retire from the company.

“Tea is the second most-consumed beverage in the world and represents a sizeable opportunity for Starbucks as we continue to grow around the world,” said Cliff Burrows, group president, U.S., Americas and Teavana. “We are grateful for Andy's leadership establishing Teavana as a world-class leader responsible for bringing premium tea to millions of customers over the past 17 years. Under Annie's leadership, we plan to do for tea what we did for coffee by significantly expanding the availability of new and innovative Teavana products in Starbucks and Teavana retail stores and through other channels.”
