Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. said Thursday it has entered into a
long-term, strategic agreement with Nestle USA to manufacture and
distribute Starbucks-branded packaged coffee in K-Cup pods in the
U.S. and Canada.
Keurig Dr Pepper said the new deal with Nestle, which acquired
the rights in August 2018 to market and distribute Starbucks CPG
and Foodservice products globally outside of Starbucks coffee
shops, would replace the existing K-Cup pod agreement between
Keurig Dr Pepper and Starbucks Corp. following a transition
period.
Financial terms of the agreement between Keurig Dr Pepper and
Nestle weren't disclosed.
