behaviour is quality and prices of product. Basically there are four approaches of segmentation
like Behavioural, geographical, demographic and Psycho graphic segmentation.
Geographical segmentation is most appropriate segmentation for selling the selected coffee
product. In order to increase the sale, the firm has targeted different geographical segments of
UK in which they established there outlets and targeted premium class people which have a
positive buying behaviour and able to afford its prices. It is quite valuable approach for large
company Starbucks, that operates across many countries, as geographical segment will allow
them to consider cultural differences. Demographic segmentation will also be effective for the
chosen product as due to many factors because Starbucks attracts many people from the age of
the 21 and up. This has been due to various attraction the company will offers various attractive
packages. These experiences offer something for everyone to enjoy regardless of age. Secondly,
