Page 10: Starbucks in Dk

CSR limitations:

A CSR issue can be hidden and immeasurable;

Can represent more risks than opportunities / higher cost than

profits;

Integration of CSR requires a deeper transformation of

companies' core business and product;

Companies have a low level of control over sustainability because

this might occur in supply chain rather than in their own operations;

Lack of control when it requires changes in cultural norm, habits

or identities.

Page 11: Starbucks in Dk

Conclusion:

The absence of the CSR when adopting an expansion

strategy can be damaging for the company;

The competitive aspects and the supply chain activities

need to be looked at also from the CSR point of view, when

deciding an expansion strategy;

The CSR has to be part of the vision, mission and objectives

in order to evaluate the results, benefits and impact that the

strategy has on the society and environment.
