For Bt150, the reusable cup is nearly identical to Starbucks iconic white cup and made from polypropylene, which is specially designed to make the cup sturdier than paper. Customers also receive a Bt10 discount for each purchase with a reusable cup. Since 2014, Starbucks has offered the reusable cup in the US, Canada and the UK and so far, has sold more than 25 million globally. We’re proud to provide a reusable option in all Starbucks stores in Thailand without making sacrifices to our customers’ daily coffee ritual,” said Nednapa Srisamai, managing director of Starbucks Coffee (Thailand). Together, Starbucks and customers in Thailand have helped save more than 10 million single-use plastic and paper cups.
