Abstract

This qualitative study conducted in Buraydah, Saudi Arabia, explores coffee customers' shifting preferences, with a focus on the growing popularity of espresso and multi-roasted coffee. Through interviews with consumers, baristas, and coffee roasters, the study investigates the motivations behind these choices, which include health concerns, flavor exploration, and a dislike for highly acidic coffees. The findings highlight the appeal of concentrated flavor, higher caffeine concentration, and the ability to appreciate the varied qualities of coffee beans from different places. Omni roasted coffee, with its medium-dark roast, has a balanced flavor profile that works well with a number of brewing methods. The concept of coffee terroir, which highlights the distinct flavors associated with individual origins, influences customer preferences. These findings have ramifications for coffee growers and baristas, who can meet shifting customer needs by acquiring high-quality beans and perfecting brewing procedures. This study leads to a better knowledge of changing coffee preferences and gives practical insights for industry stakeholders.

Abstract

The demand for sustainable business practices is higher than ever in today's world, which is characterised by environmental degradation, social inequity, and economic unpredictability. Sustainable entrepreneurship, which balances economic, social, and environmental aims, can lead to more ethical and resilient organizational operations. This study dives into the transformative journeys of Howard Schultz of Starbucks and Edward Tirtanata of Kopi Kenangan to show how businesses can succeed while solving global concerns. Schultz's vision of Starbucks as a "third place" between home and work, influenced by Italian coffee culture, and Tirtanata's purpose to make high-quality coffee accessible and culturally relevant in Indonesia demonstrate visionary leadership and market adaptation. Their encounters show how incorporating sustainability into fundamental business strategy may improve brand reputation, strengthen supply chains, and fulfil the growing consumer demand for corporate responsibility. This study explores the socio-theoretical foundations and worldwide goals of sustainable business using qualitative analysis, which includes a literature review and thematic coding. It emphasizes the significance of cultural sensitivity and community inclusion, emphasizing how honouring local traditions generates more market acceptance and community bonds. The study also coincides with strategic management theories including the resource-based view (RBV), planned behaviour theory, and stakeholder theory, emphasizing the link between sustainability and intrinsic motivation and purpose. Ultimately, Schultz and Tirtanata's experiences demonstrate that sustainable entrepreneurship is more than a moral duty; it is a strategic necessity for long-term success.
