Corporate Governance

Coffe cups lined up in front of coffee beans

As part of the Starbucks mission we are committed to maintaining our uncompromising principles while we grow.

In this regard, our Board of Directors has adopted governance principles, committee charters and policies to lead Starbucks governance practices. Currently, our board has 14 directors, a substantial majority of whom meet all of the independence requirements of NASDAQ® and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
