Coffee Shop, Contained: Fortune 500 issue May 2013

Posted by: on May 6, 2013

Fortune 500 issue May 2013 – SG Blocks noted as a partner in Starbucks’ new container based drive-through store initiative.

A blend of drive-throughs and drive-through/walk-up hybrids, Starbucks will use a tiny footprint to enter high-traffic locations previously out of reach.
