Reading the figures

The 62 restaurants are a record drawn from Foursquare Open Places, not a count published by the brand — this country has not been calibrated yet — its recorded counts have not been confronted with the network sizes brands publish.

The reach indicators — coverage, index by region — are robust to that bias: they measure a distance and a population, which a location described twice does not move. Recorded 23 August 2026.

Frequently asked questions about Starbucks in Italy

Tout ce que vous devez savoir sur nos solutions.

How many restaurants does Starbucks have in Italy?

The record of 23 August 2026 identifies 62 Starbucks restaurants in Italy, across 12 regions. This is a record, not an official count: this country has not been calibrated yet — its recorded counts have not been confronted with the network sizes brands publish. The figure serves to compare networks rather than to count stores.

What share of Italy does Starbucks reach?

13.6 % of the population lives within 5 kilometres of a Starbucks, and 25.2 % within 10 kilometres. Coverage counts each population cell once, however many locations reach it, which makes it insensitive to the double-counting that affects raw location totals.

Is Starbucks denser in Italy or in France?

Per 100,000 inhabitants, Starbucks has 0.11 restaurants in Italy against 0.47 in France — a density 77 % lower. Both records come from the same source and the same method, which is the condition for the gap to mean anything.
