Starbucks brews up 20 new jobs as Rotherham store opens today

STARBUCKS says its new store in Rotherham has created 20 jobs and will raise cash for Bluebell Wood.

The coffee chain’s latest branch opened today at The Foundry retail park in Parkgate, with Sheffield Wednesday’s Steven Fletcher and Morgan Fox doing the honours.

Representatives of Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice also attended the ceremony after it was named the branch’s charity partner.

The drive thru coffee shop will be operated by Starbucks licensee Soul Coffee.

District manager for Soul Coffee Beata Grabowska said: “We are so excited to open this new Starbucks drive thru in Rotherham and look forward to welcoming residents and visitors to our new store. 

“Our store team is proud to support Bluebell Wood in its important mission of caring for children in the local area suffering from illness and their families.”
