“Until now there hasn’t been a big brand to drive the category forward but we are confident that with a global brand as established and trusted as Starbucks we can achieve this.”

The companies announced the venture back in January, which will see Arla manufacture, distribute and market the Starbucks-branded premium RTD coffee beverages in Europe.
