In 1998, U.S.-based Starbucks Coffee International, Taiwan Uni-President Enterprise Corp., and President Chain Store Corp (PCSC) formed a joint venture to establish Uni-President Starbucks Coffee Corp. in Taiwan. In 2004, PCSC launched its own affordable brand, City Cafe, which turned over a new leaf for brewed coffee modes used in marketing through convenience stores. The purpose of this study was to clarify how the PCSC completed brand segmentation marketing modes in the fiercely competitive coffee beverage market through its existing favorable conditions. As for research methods, the coffee consumption motives and purchase modes of coffee consumers in metropolitan areas were targeted to conduct preliminary surveys and discussions. It was found that coffee lovers that had more than one cup of coffee displayed certain consumer behavioral patterns. In addition, the main consumer groups were included in the comprehensive questionnaire surveys and discussions. The results show the reason for the high market shares of Uni-president Starbucks Coffee Corp. and City Cafe is that Uni-president Starbucks Coffee Corp. and PCSC take immediate responses based on market survey results.
